Join our ALLSPEL at Svensk
Hyllningsfest!
This year we will introduce you to an ALLSPEL at Svensk Hyllningsfest. For the ALLSPEL we encourage all musicians, fiddlers and players of other instruments, alumni-fiddlers and future fiddlers, guests as well as Lindsborg-musicians, senior citizens as well as students, and people brave enough to participate in something new to join the Lindsborg Swedish Fiddlers. We'd like to start a new tradition, but we need you!
For more information, visit our ALLSPEL page.
