Global Soundtracks: The Nordic Fiddlers Bloc

Time: 7:30pm The Nordic Fiddlers Bloc are Olav Luksengård Mjelva (Norway), Anders Hall (Sweden) and Kevin Henderson (Shetland). Norway, Sweden and Shetland have three of the richest fiddle traditions in the world, with historical links going back hundreds of years. The Nordic Fiddlers Bloc seek to bring those links and traditions alive and present them in a dynamic and meaningful way. Their individual styles blend together in a unique and intensive sound, that whilst distinctive, always remains faithful to the roots of their tradition.
