"Martins begravning" not quite ready for prime time

Wintergreen guests sometimes ask what we do on our days off. Here is one of the things I like to do.


In April 2008 we received a visit from a group of music high school students from Rättvik. Their teacher Jeanett spent a few hours with me teaching me some new tunes. “Martins begravning” was one of them. The words that go with this tune are something like "Even if we don't have gingerbread cookies, it doesn't matter as long as the soul is happy." No cookies, but would anyone like a pretzel?
