简介

This album is the result of 15 years of playing together and recordings made between 2010 and 2014. Jeanett Rousu is a tradition keeper från the district of Småland and on this album she plays the viola d'amore. An instrument well suited to bring out the baroque-influented music of Småland. Peter Rousu plays the guitar with a simple drop-D tuning but with an octave-pedal which make it possible to play the bass simultaneously on the guitar. Since he is a bass player he really has the bass thinking when playing. The album contains both traditional music from the district of Småland and own compositions. Jeanett is a well qualified violin player and she has studied for Mats Edén (Groupa) and Pelle Björnlert (Silfver). She earned the Zorn Badge in silver, 1998, for elegant playing of dance-music from Småland, and thereby got the titel "Riksspelman". A title that proofs that you are a tradition keeper. She has studied to be "master of fine arts" at the music Academy in Malmö and gives folkmusicworkshops both in Sweden and around the world. She has performed with the folkmusic-group "Tilja" and now together with Peter Rousu. Peter has his musical origin in jazz music. And he studied jazzbass at the royal music Academy in Stockholm for Jan Adefelt. He got into folk music in the 90's and has developed himself as a guitar player with a very "bassy" approach. In 2002 the group "Fatang" was releasing their first album on a small record label "RPM-music" and they made 3 albums together. The last one with a big band. (!) In this band Peter plays both guitar and bass. He gives lessons in folk music ensemble and folk music guitar on high levels.
