Thread Name: Swedish travel and music for Casey
Subject: RE: Swedish travel and music for Casey
I would recommend contacting my friend Tim Rued, who is a very accomplished Swedish fiddler. Although he is American, he speaks fluent Swedish and has been awarded a bronze medal in the Swedish Traditional Fiddle Championship. He often leads tours of Sweden, and specializes in music arts and culture. He knows many Swedish Fiddle (fiol) and nyckelharpa (key fiddle) players. You can also see the link for the Spelmanslag I posted in this thread. http://www.members.aol.com/timrued/index.htm here is the web site about his guided travel opportunities http://www.folksweden.com/
