Scarlatti), ‘Mickes idépolska’ (M. Nolervik), ‘Polska efter Byss-Kalle’ (trad.), and a number of the artists’ own works. In the middle of September they go for a new concert tour, this time both in Norway and Sweden. Lars Karlsson, from a folk music background, was Nordic Diatonic Champion in 1993, and active as both a player and a composer.
