Moved To Stockholm

[SteveS]

I've just recently moved to Stockholm.

 

Haven't yet got all of my 'tinas with me, but got my essential Aeola TT.

So I'm looking forward to playing polskas for dancing, and with new and old music pals in Sweden.

 

Eventually I'll move my whole workshop over - I hope to eventually offer restoration services for concertinas and harmoniums for Nordic players.

 

Anyone in the Stockholm area fancy meeting up for fika and a few tunes?

 

Skriv gärna på svenska eller engelska.

Welcome to Sweden!! Restoration services in Stockholm would be lovely .

Do you already know some polskas?

We'll be in Stockholm the first weekend of May but without instruments because we're going on a whisky trip to Scotland, leaving on the Sunday. Maybe a fika and hello and welcome to Sweden or something? Send a pm if interested. It's always nice to make new concertina connections. I play anglo (early levels) and my husband plays the 2-row accordion, both G/C and he's learning the B/C. We both play various stringed instruments too.

Hej Susanne - would be great to meet up for fika - lets exchange PMs a little closer to the time.

I already play loads of polskor and I have a deep interest Nordic music, song and dance.

Will you be at SSSI? I'm thinking about going.

Yes, I'll be at the SSI. You definitely should come, it's one of the best weekends of the year, at least for me.

Sadly I don't play many polskas, actually very few. My husband is good at them but he won't be able to come to the SSI because of work. I do play them but mostly on the fiddle, an instrument I have a love-hate relationship to. I focus on Irish music on the concertina, but I like to play English and Scottish tunes too. Since I play more than one instrument I try to have a focus on each instrument, otherwise it gets rather overwhelming.

I'm thinking of bringing a second instrument to the SSI this year but haven't decided what.
