Fiddling Around the Globe
A group class parent told me that their son was a finalist in this fiddling contest in Sligo, Ireland!!! How cool is that?! Check out the artists and details here!!
I am excited to know of the event, as
I've visited Sligo and loved that part of Ireland...Yeats Country, the area is called.
The innkeeper we befriended in 2010
also told me about another event:
A former student let me know that this group Väsen played the Cedar Cultural Center here in Minneapolis!
One of the instruments being played is called "...a "nyckelharpa" (keyed harp). It was quite popular all over Europe in the later medieval period, but the tradition more or less died out apart from some places in eastern Sweden, especially the region of Uppland." --YouTube commenter
