An evening of Appalachian String Band music with a focus on the Round Peak fiddle style native to Surry County, NC and Grayson and Carroll Counties, VA . This style is highly popular in the field of Old Time Music. Stockholm's own Mange Norrman is one of the leading interpreters of this style anywhere in the world. I am really looking forward to this reunion with Mange who I have known for 35 years.
