Jon Andersson , Fel-Jon även kallad, bodde i Aspberget, Norra Finnskoga. Denna polska som återfinns i värmlandsdelen av Svenska Låtar tecknades också ner av Einar Övergaard i Elverum, Norge. Den norska varianten är sannolikt efter Martinus Amundsen (1846-1929)som spelade en vinter på danser tillsammans med Jon Andersson. Detta skedde i Gravberget, gränsbyn som i början av förra seklet beboddes av stora mängder skogsarbetare.

I denna inspelning som gjordes i Arvika den 14 januari 2014 spelar Anders Nordlöf melodin och stämman spelas av Mats Berglund.

The Scottish bagpipe tune Scotland the Brave played on a set of Wallace Highland pipes.

Scotland The Brave (Great Highland Bagpipes)

Traditional tune played on a "Zampogna a Chiave" (traditional Neapolitan bagpipe) made by Marco Cianciaruso. This one has the "modified drone" allowing you to, apart from the two melody chanters, to play three notes on the drone as well, making it the only (?) bagpipe on which you can play three-part-harmony...

Danza Di Ponte Vecchio (Zampogna)

This springlek (a type of quick polska) comes from Dalarna and is played on a Swedish bagpipe ("svensk säckpipa") built by Alban Faust.

Petter Dufva  (1756-1836) was a fiddler in Småland who wrote down many tunes in a note book, dated 1807. In total it contains about 200 tunes (mostly polskas, some menuets). Many of the polskas (and at least two of the menuets) are playable on Swedish bagpipes, in some cases with minor adjustments.

This is polska number 39 from that tune book.

This is a polska from that tune book, in a version which I learned from one of Smålands finest fiddlers, Eva Johansson, a few years ago. Thanks Eva!
