Kalle Almlof with Anders Almlof
Malungslek
17.99
In the summer of 1999 at Arvika, Anders Almlöf was
made Riksspelman, a title
reserved for the best folk musicians in Sweden. He was
the first person for many
years to accomplish this on his first attempt. Twenty
seven years earlier, Kalle Amlöf
had achieved the same thing at Gävle in 1972. Kalle
and his nephew Anders became
Riksspelmän at the same age. Despite the family
connection, the two fiddlers have
only just started playing together. Now Kalle and Anders
Almlöf meet on this, their
first joint album. Most of the tunes are from Western
Dalarna but there are also trips
to Särna and Norway. Anders and Kalle divide the
melody and harmonies in a
brotherly way. Both play fiddles made by Kalle.

Please note!
Most of our CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and we are not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever we
can, we used recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
