The Norwegian title can be translated with "Foggy Scenery".

Nice tune! And sweet looking and sounding box.
I really like how the finger board ends are finished, nice touch.

Yes, a nice tune well played.
There's a crispness to the playing that I like.

The box has the signature look of a Bergflodt.
It's one I would like to try, I've admired them for a time but never had the opportunity to play one.
Looking at his fb posts, they are meticulously made and bespoke.
I think they have a crisp sound that isn't harsh. Would love to know how English tunes sound on them.
The only person I know who has one is Owen Wood of this parish and haven't managed to bump into him since he had it made.

Yes, I think it's a Bergflodt too, the video is posted on his Youtube channel. This is Olav's thread, perhaps he may pop in and comment on the reeds he uses at some point.

Thanks Pete, I hadn't noticed it was on Olav's YouTube channel.
He often has players on his channel, sometimes from competitions or local festivals, and there's some wonderful playing.

I made this box back in 2006/07 using Binci reeds.
