Marylands
Marylands plays good, old-time Bergen-style gammeldance (waltz,
schottische, polka, mazurka, etc.) Under the leadership of the legendary
Bergen fiddler Finn Vabø, Marylands has collected some of the best fiddlers
in the land to play top-class dance music. With the group's special
"groove" they play music that really swings! Their repertory includes
everything from short simple tunes to long, almost virtuosic masterpieces,
all performed in typical Bergen style. The group includes many well-known
names: Finn Vabø, Øivind Vabø, Steinar Rygg, Monika Antun, Håkon Høgemo,
Elna F. Selle, Synnøve Øvrebø, Hallgrim Skjerdal, Elisabeth Eikås, Synnøve
Bjørset, Axel Heienberg, Olav Tveitane and Sigbjørn Apeland. With eleven
Hardanger fiddles, pump organ and guitar, this band will give you an
unforgettable musical and dancing experience.
