Acoustic Nordic folk music from Finland and Norway. There’s a touch of bluegrass as well, but mostly is just great music played with flair, energy, and a boat-load of talent. Fiddles (fiddles, and more fiddles), mandolin, viola, nyckelharpa & other strings harmonize w/style. This is good stuff and you can play it all.

*1. A (too short) happy happy folk dance..
*2. Sweet & lively w/a catchy melody.
*3. A toe-tapping little tune. Nice.
4. Bright & bluegrassy.
5. Mid/uptempo w/a touch of drama.
6. Slow & almost medieval w/an elegant sadness.
*7. Uptempo strings in a big, joyful sound.
*8. A rich 2-part dance w/wonderful harmonies.
9. Bouncy & lively w/nice accents of drum & guitar.
*10. A fast dance w/great energy & interplays.
11. Warm mid-tempo w/a sense of elegance to it.
12. A catchy folk tune w/great style.
13. A lovely melodic track w/a sense of romance & longing.
