Hambo

[@bevturquoise4651]

This dance does not look "fun" but it's the MOST FUN dance!!!! The thrill of that turn is AMAZING. I pray I get to dance it again!!!!

So that is the hambo. I am reading a book set in Sweden during WWII and the dance gets mentioned.

[@Dalpilarna]

what's the name of the book?

[@andersliljevall2946]

The hambo is fun to dance!

Det är en vacker dans! Och bra spelat också.

This was worth my time

Lovely video! What is the name of this tune?

[@alecmac100]

Skinnbracka med lucku seems to be the usual name

Thanks so much! I am trying to learn more Scandi tunes and it's hard to perform them when I can't say what the name is or who it's from.

[@alecmac100]

As a fellow Scandi enthusiast I agree entirely and it can be difficult to obtain the sheet music. Mark Gilston’s videos on UA-cam are very helpful in identifying new tunes for my own repertoire. You might also like to search under Ivares Pojkarna -fewer tunes but authentic playing which is just out of this world. Hope that helps

@@alecmac100 there's a website with sheet music: www.folkwiki.se
it's all in Swedish but with any luck (and maybe google translate) you might find what you're looking for!

[@alecmac100]

Simon Mårtensson. Tack så mycket! My understanding of Swedish is coming along nicely and the website you mention will help!

Jag är den ende i Sverige, som tycker det är fint och kommenterar. Och jag har tränade folkdans lite med min söta fru på 80-talet, och det var roligt.

[@neerrd]

Fint Leif! Jag tycker också det är så fint.

Ingen Hambo-stinta i kort-kort?

I vissa danser kan man byta partner, det kan ge vissa eldade saker :)

[@user3141592635]

Förr var dans det enda sättet för vanligt folk att hitta sin mate. Bland de ädla, så fanns alltid sätt eller måte.

Ok
