This is the reason why the sjøfløyte (sea flute) became so popular, because thetunes could, to a certain degree, be transferred onto the sea flute, which wasn’tseen as a sinful instrument. Around 1900, there were over twenty named seaflute players in the Flesberg area alone.But now it was necessary for the Numedal fiddlers to travel over the mountainsto Telemark in order to build up the tradition again. Telemark players such asMyllarguten and Knut Luraas had actually collected many of their tunes fromNumedal, and now the tunes could be brought back.CD 2 – 3 Synne Frogner, Hardanger fiddle: Torstein Bromsdalen, etterKnut Dahle / Steingrim Haukjem / Sigurd Frogner (Numedal)Dancers from Numedal
