Hi Stuart,
I don't have yet his album, but I don't know if he plays french cistre music
or arrangement of swedish accompagnied by the cistre. Anyway he tunes it
E-A-D-E-A-C-E (not C#), so he uses the french tuning.
He also uses cistre for p^laying Bellman's music.
Regards,
Damien

Hi All,
Jakob Lindberg and Anna Emillson have recorded an album featuring a
french cistre built by Deleplanque in 1776.
That's the only one album I know featuring 18th century cistre, and the
sound is BELLISSIMO.

Judging by the photos, Jakob Lindberg just doesn't get any older! Years
ago (in the 1980s) he was planning a Bellman concert or album and was
going to use the cistre to accompany a singer.Perhaps the cistre in the
photo is the same instrument as he had then. He wanted to look at some
French cistre song accompaniments to see how Bellman might have devised
his accompaniments.
Does he play actual cistre music of the time on this album or has he
devised his own music for it?
