TRON STEFFEN WESTBERG
Bortover All Vei…
2L 2L4 (2002)
From Brekken near Røros, Westberg is a leading player of the ordinary fiddle as
used in that region, and also recently of the hardingfele. Here he plays mainly
the Røros area’s characteristic polses, with some gångars, springars and
marches. Most solo with just his foot-thump, a few in duet or trio, and the
closer is a bridal march with Røros church organ.
