The Hedeby Rebec by Instruments of Antiquity

This is the updated first episode of the Instruments of Antiquity Compendium of Very Early Period Instruments. In this episode I will give some insight into the historic artifact, and the process of development of this early bowed fiddle. As a builder, this video focuses more on the technical aspects of the instrument, and includes a brief playing demonstration. Special thanks to Bruce Arnold for the lighting and video recording.
