Northern California Spelmanslag Newsletter
The Spelmanslag publishes the Northern California Spelmanslag News
quarterly: Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter . The first volume was
published in September 1990. The newsletter keeps musicians, dancers,
and members of the Scandinavian community informed regarding our
activities. The
newsletter includes a calendar of Scandinavian folk music and dance
activities
in Northern California and elsewhere, news about the Spelmanslag
organization, and articles of interest. This newsletter keeps other
groups informed
regarding Scandinavian folkdance and music activities in Northern
California,
and provides an outlet for them to inform others of their own special
events.
