Hi! I'm a Nordic trad. musician and teacher from Norway/Europe, currently living in Milwaukee, WI. I teach traditional Scandinavian fiddle music on fiddle, Hardanger fiddle, mandolin, and guitar (DADGAD), and I teach all levels and ages. In my lessons: besides building your Scandi repertoire, I work on technique and tune mechanics, how to brake down and approach Scandinavian rhythms, ornaments, double stops and string paired bowing, so that you can both sound authentic and master a good groove for dancing and jamming. I listen and adapt to my students' challenges, tempos and wishes in order to best build their progress towards mastering their instruments and projecting their individual musicality. I have a Master degree in performing Nordic traditional music from the Royal Academy of Music in Stockholm/Sweden. I have been a performer and a teacher for over 25 years. Feel free to send me an email with any questions :)
