Tim Rued's Personalized Folk Tour of Sweden - 2022 |
Two full weeks intimately exploring all aspects of folk culture in places with rich traditions. Attending music festivals! June 29 - July 13 |
The folk culture of Sweden is a fascinating study. Every category is a blending affected by the others. To truly understand the folk music, one must be acquainted with the environment in which it developed. This tour will take a group of 5 travellers along with an experienced guide to see music and dance festivals, museums, castles, country churches, Viking grave mounds, and wonderful sites where nature can be enjoyed. There will be stays at hotels and bed-&-breakfast homes. Some activities will be for the general public, and some will be arranged specifically for this tour. The exact itinerary will be determined according to the specific interests of the participants: -Musicians will want extra time meeting and playing with local Swedish folk musicians. -Artists will want to visit displays of prominent Swedish artwork, as well as spending extra time enjoying folk art in its place. -The spiritually adventurous might want to spend the night in a haunted castle, or visit sites where witches were tried, or where trolls were sighted in the long past. |
