Setesdal
I have for a long time been a great fan of the traditional music from Setesdal. This music has come to be a greater and greater part of my project.
Therefore visiting Setesdal (with my supervisor who many connections there, and on my own) has been very important. Activities have included taking lessons from mouth harp master Sigurd Brokke, botanizing in the local music archive with Harald Knutsen, going to dance workshop in gangar, getting records signed by living legend Hallvard Bjørgum, attending folk music concerts at the pub and meeting other enthusiast of this music.
