Have a nice summer!

It''s summer and many of you will be travelling in this period. Of the places you'll see is your forefather's land in Norway. If you would like to share your memories from you trip to Norway, I'd be glad to publish it at my website.

Didn't the pictures you took on your trip to Norway come out well? A search for "Norway" at Allposters.com produce a large number of beautiful pictures. At SheetmusicPlus.com you find a large collection of sheetmusic, songbooks. Of course, Norwegian composers are represented. At Amazon.com you find, among other things, books and CD's. I have suggested a few "Norwegian" items. Use the links that I have provided throughout the site. Or you can visit my Amazon.com store

Sure hope you enjoy your stay!

Do you know this man?

This is Kristian Amundsen Overlie. He came to the USA in march 1895. Very little is known about his life.
He showed up in Benson, Minnesota to visit family in 1914. That is the last his family heard of him. He is surrounded by myths. Did he leave traceable information or did he, as one rumour tells, end up as the guest of honour at a "neck-tie party"?

Read about Kristian by going to the stories section.

 

If you're looking for sheet music, I recommend Sheet Music Plus. They have the World's largest selection, guaranteed low prices, and great customer service.
