There was Medieval music at the historical Christmas marke in Handen last Saturday. This duo is called Korp (Raven). To the left Gunnar Nordlinder who plays drums, Jew's harp and a few more instruments. To the right Karen Petersen who sings and as you can see here she also plays the fiddla, a type of violin. The fiddla dates back to the Middle Ages. There were lots of handmade Christmas items for sale in the museum. Like these rather unusual candle holders. On the third and last photo you can spot The Ring Bearer talking to Jocke Lavett, two of the Vikings that I met back in October.

I find the "fiddla" to be an interesting and beautiful instrument! Does she play in a Spelmanslag?
These get more and more wonderful each day, Steffe.

These people are very dedicated aren't they? I really like the candle holders.

Oh, I love the candle holders! Beautiful. I also enjoyed the market photos you posted recently. Northern climates certainly understand the beauty of candle light.
Looks like an interesting place. I would like to visit there. I like the candle holders too.
Fantastic and lovely shots !! Seems they were having a wonderful time !
The shot of the christmas candles is amazing. I love the detail and light. Very impressive.
This looks like so much fun. Was the music good? I'd like to hear the fiddla played as I'm fond of folk music from Europe and North America.
I liked all the images. quite different culture.
