Strohfiddel

Strohfiddel may refer to:

  • Xylophone, based on the German term strohfiedel, referring to the straw bundles (stroh) which supported the keys.
  • Dulcigurdy, an instrument depicted in 17th century musical texts, often mislabeled as strohfiddel due to its proximity to a xylophone in a 1618 engraving in Syntagma Musicum.
