Is Fidel a traditional musical instrument

Fidel and modern violin are very similar in nature, but their playing styles are different. It is precisely because of this difference that traditional musicians prefer to call them "Fidel" rather than violins or traditional musical instruments.

As an important part of Irish contemporary culture, traditional music is composed of multiculturalism. It not only has many characteristics of western European traditional music, but also integrates Celtic culture.

Extended data:

After centuries of turbulent history and the invasion of foreign nationalities, the cultures of Britain and continental Europe have gradually been closely combined with the local Irish culture, forming colorful Irish music.

Traditional musical instruments mainly include harp, bagpipes, folk violin Fidel, tin flute (whistle), flute, Podland drum and so on. Among them, the most Irish features are the harp, bagpipes and Podland drums. These musical instruments have a long history and are mostly used for entertainment and rarely used for ceremonies.
