about

“Waltz With Me” is part of a concert commissioned by Telemark Folk Music Festival in Norway, July 2007. I wanted to put together a folk music quartet, and was honoured when Bruce, Mikael and Christine agreed to take part in this project. The music was written in an attempt to find a point of intersection for these wonderful musicians in their traditions, personal style and hearts."
– Annbjørg

A musical melting pot
This work was also presented at the Celtic Connections festival in Scotland the following year. The string quartet consists of Annbjørg Lien, Hardanger fiddle and fiddle; Bruce Molsky (USA), fiddle and vocals; Christine Hanson (Canada/Scotland), cello; and Mikael Marin (Sweden), viola.

“Waltz With Me” unites four strong artists and their rich traditions in a musical melting pot that transcends genres. The free arrangements reflect a long tradition of collaboration, crossover and playfulness.
