The inspiration of music dates back to been given the priviledge to grow up close to nature in a fjordlandscape on the north-west of Norway, having the woods, streams and mountains in the backyard so to speak. From there came the love for a broader spectre of music and sounds, with a special relationship towards acoustic instruments and folk music from all over the world.
The hardanger fiddle seen on the picture, has its roots back to the Middle Ages in Norway. It looks similar to a violin, but has ressonating strings and belongs to the bordun type instruments. The oldest preserved hardanger fiddle is from 1651. My fiddle dates back to 1917 and has belonged to my great-grandfather and the family ever after.
Last 14 years I have lived in the norwegian west-coast city Bergen. Almost 250 000 people live here. The liking for hardanger fiddle started when I joined the local group Fjellbekken and met the fantastic fiddle player - Finn Vabø.
Now I play with the group SantaCecilia. Please listen to new recorded music and soon a new cd from Santa Cecilia
Music is love and therefore we need to put the heart into music. One method is using meditation, which is positiv for all artists and starting a creative process. Pure attention and the inner feeling of soulful music is supported by the balancing of the Sahaja Yoga method. A spontanous feeling of real balance and peace. Feel free to attend a course anywhere in the world, or please feel free to try out online. Already many musicans, artist, composers make use of it. No commercial interests are involved. Enjoy life! Enjoy even more after meditation:
