  • Bio

    MOLDESTAD - MJØLSNES - HØGEMO Norwegian "Grammy", "Spellemannpris 2005" for teh record "Gamalnymalt". Three outstanding fiddlers developing traditions into something real new. Gamaltnymalt, a play on words contrasting the old with the new, represents a commercial counterweight to what is called the “Bergen wave” on today’s Norwegian music scene. These three outstanding instrumentalists transport the Hardanger fiddle into a new dimension. The sound produced by the trios 5-string Hardanger fiddles is powerful, and is in itself a unique contribution to the history of the instrument in Norway. The members of the trio spend a great deal of time colouring traditional tunes and compositions with the right hues. In their search for the sounds that are found somewhere between the upper strings and the sympathetic strings, they bring the music into a more potent landscape. They lift the traditions of the instrument as an individualistic performance medium (solo playing) into a new sphere. The result is compelling trio music. The title Gamaltnymalt is thus very descriptive of this historic CD release. Recorded in Grieghallen Lydstudio 2005 Soundengineer: Pytten Produced by Pytten and the trio ...... ..Myspace Editor.... ..Pimp MySpace.. ....

  • David Franks: Walkabout…

    After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on MySpace...

    Poem cum song 5 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (see my Blog for details):
    STATE TO STATE

    (TUNE:

    From Sydney Town,
        In uni. break,
    I drove out west
        To earnings make
    Onion picking,
        On the fields
    Of Echuca,
        That year’s yields.

    After day’s work,
        From Y.H.A.,
    A group of us
        Would not delay
    To walk on down
        To the dirt rim
    Of the Murray,
        For a cool swim.

    On one such day,
        I do declare,
    Some three of us
        Had a big dare
    To swim across,
        From state to state,
    The wide Murray -
        I took the bait.

    Yes, foolishly,
        I took the bait -
    A choice that I
        Would come to hate,
    For I almost
        Did drown that date,
    Making the swim
        From state to state.
