2009-08-21 Thread Anthony Robb

   Thanks for those comments Sheila. As it happens the walkers (120 or
   so) were sauntering around one of Martha's famous buffet arrangements
   at Blankenheim when I learnt the tune. We played it on two fiddles and
   a nyckelharpa about 17 times through and it was lovely. We have since
   used the tune to walk the building at The Sage Gateshead - strolling
   around playing it everywhere including fire escapes, main auditoriums
   and even loos!  I think it's called taking the music to the people.

APPELBOLATEN  should be Äppelbolåten, though my Swedish publications (and
friends!) all call the tune Gånglåt från Äppelbo - which simply means
'Walking tune from Äppelbo'. It's a tune from Dalarna, usually associated
with a fiddle player called Ärtbergs Kalle (1826-1917)
