| Part 6 |

Hi there again,
Now we have accomplished the 2005 ANA Stämma/Workshop in Lahaska, PA.
Attendees were Bruce Sagan, NJ. Bronwyn Bird, PA, Sally Chandler, NJ,
Karen Nelson, Seattle, Martine Chiasson, Montreal, Peter Puma
Hedlund, Sweden, Janet Jensen, Wisconsin, Tim Cresson, NJ, Chiara
Bos, PA, Lenora Kandiner, NJ, Doug Oines, PA, Nancy Brown, PA, Rita
and Chris Leydon, PA

Karen Nelson from Seattle communes with Rita's Sahlström harpa.

Rule number one ... take off shoes in the house!

here is an assemblage of pictures for a 180 degree view of a session

Bronwyn served as Peter's assistant, working a bit with the beginners

Bruce Sagan and Bronwyn spent every spare moment jamming together.

This couple, Tim and Lenora, saw Peter perform
in Vermont the weekend
> before and decided they wanted to learn to play nyckelharpa, asked if
> they could attend the workshops, borrowed instruments and had a
> wonderful time.

Saturday night was August 8, and the traditional
start of crayfish
> season in Sweden. We imported crayfish from the west coast and
> enjoyed our own version of the feat with Peter providing instructions
> on eating and singing ... the group caught on quickly and slurped and
> dripped with glee between toasts.


Food appeared at regular intevals and was mostly taken outside in the
garden. Here Peter slices a cold "tjälknöl."

> Chris was mostly behind the scenes with
Rita, but here he actually
> gets a chance to play with Bruce, much to his delight.
