Nyckelharpa in Music Schools – The Beginning
Interview with Anders Liljefors by Ditte Andersson
Abstract:
Traditionally, the only music you could study at music schools of all sorts, from the very start up to college level, was classical music. In Sweden, this started to be officially questioned in the 70’s, with official reports and changes as a result. These official changes were the result of the work of many pioneers, people who acted up to their convictions, and, thus, made an impact on the system. In many cases this was possible because they were ”bi-lingual”, they knew classical and folk music equally well, which gave them leverage to bring about changes.
Anders Liljefors, who, together with his friend and colleague Mats Kuoppala, was among the first, if not the first, to bring nyckelharpa into the municipal music school around 1968 (Nyckelharpa in music schools).
