Ville Roempke  began to study Jamtlandic old-time playing style some thirty years ago when he first heard and recorded a couple of good old fiddlers born on the last decades of the nineteenth century. The music characterizes in light bowing and lively rhythm, different tunings, triplets in the polska-melodies and the use of an old-fashioned way to intonate certain notes in the scale.

Ville Roempke finds the Jamtlandic old-time playing style very  interesting and it has brought him into the willow flute with its natural harmonic scale.
