Jag vet att det finns sångare i Lund. Det är ju ganska nära Kalmar så det kan ju hända att jag dras med i sång med dem. De hade workshop på Öland för ett par år sedan och jag var frestad att delta men det har inte blivit så ännu. Annars är jag flöjtspelare med inriktning tidig musik 12-1700-tal. Nu har jag anmält mig till det nordiska forumet och då förstår jag att jag kommer att få brev om nyheter. Fint att ni finns!!!!
