Palerud, Bjarne - Julekvelden - Hardanger Fiddle

This is an album of a master of the Norwegian Hardanger fiddle. Bjarne Palerud was a gifted musician whose playing was much prized in the Norwegian folk scene in the 1970s and 1980s. He was a perfectionist who could sit for hours practising a single tune until it was exactly as he wanted it. The result of this perfectionism can therefor be heard on this album. He also played often for dancing parties at dance clubs, and these dance tunes you also can find on this album. It is good to know that his music can live on into the future, and that those who didn?t have the pleasure to listen to his music in the past can still listen to it.
