During June 4-6th we were 5 musicians gathered at Kongegaarden in Korsør to launch a new project that we hope to bring out on the road in the summer of 2019.

With the support from the Danish Arts Foundation, 32 videos are now available online!
15 Danish “Rigspillemænd” (National Folk Musicians) are playing and talking about their music (only in Danish though.) Great documentation of Danish traditional music and its diversity!

Among the tunes I played when the video team was visiting my home, this Rask Kontra was selected and on the link here I tell a little about my music 🙂

All the new videos can be viewed under the Se og hør button on this web site: www.rigsspillemand.dk

Ladies and gentlemen! With great pleasure in the middle of the darkest part of the year we can now present this new trio website: www.dktrio.dk
The trio is: JENSEN, BUGGE & HØIRUP

At the same time we’ve also uploaded our first live video with sound and pictures from last summer’s great Musik Over Præstø Fjord Festival, watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKA8RxtvcaQ

Warm welcome and VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR!

2017 has been quite an amazing year for Dwight. On his 83rd birthday he was celebrated as
Dansk Rigsspillemand (National folk musician of Denmark) at a big celebration concert held at the Danish Parliament building on May 16th, see www.rigsspillemand.dk (only text in Danish.)

In September yet a chapter was added to the great story, when Dwight was honored in Washington, DC by the National Endowments of the Arts www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8icQf4p-BA&feature=youtu.be
