Though the roots of traditional Swiss folklore music are a little older it's typical styles were defined in the 19th century and some of the typical instruments used today were not known in Switzerland before 1800. The term Ländlermusic (or short Ländler) is being used in Switzerland both as a generic term for traditional rural music and as a specific term for rural dance music in animated three-four time. Other rhythms often played in traditional rural Swiss dance music are Schottisch and Polka.

Typical instruments played by ländler bands include accordion, clarinet and contrabass. In the German speaking regions, a smaller variant of the accordion, the so-called schwyzerörgeli is very popular. In the prealpine eastern region of Appenzell, string instruments (violin, cello and, as a local speciality, dulcimer play a key role). In southern (Italian speaking) Switzerland, the use of the mandolin shows traditional ties to Italian culture.

Although originally written for traditional folk instruments, I created this arrangement for Flute Quartet.

Very well done. Visiting one valley of Switzerland, the equation with this genere is immediate.
