Kirsten Bråten Berg and Hallvard Bjørgum
Runarstreng
$17.99
Dance tunes, ballads, stev (short improvised songs), and psalms from Setesdal, Norway. The vocals are accompanied by munneharpe (Jew's harp), hardingfele. Both arrtists are known for their global experiments and wide-ranging interests, but this recording from 1999 marks a return to the roots for both, in 16 direct folk songs from their home. Solo vocals, solo fiddle pieces, duets for voice and fiddle and one munneharpe harp duet make this an excellent CD for those who like their folk music straight.

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am 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 I
can, I use 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.
