The Nordic harp (Norwegian: bondeharpe,[1] bygdeharpe, folkeharpe, trekantharpe) is the Norwegian variant of the classical harp (Norwegian: byharper). The Nordic harp had fallen from use in Norway by 1823, but has since been rediscovered.

A form of harp known as the bondeharpe (peasant's harp) was also used in the valley. However, by the beginning of the 18th century both the zither and the [harp] had been superseded by the fiddle.
