Spillemandskredsens forlag
Villy Nikolajsen
Holstebrovej 98, Vejrum
7600 Struer
Denmark
'Kredsen rundt" double CD produced, published and sold by 'Spillemandskredsen' an association for musicians playing in the folk-dance clubs. 20-30, I don't remember the exact number of groups, playing 2 or 3 tunes each in very different styles.
He also sells the so-called '358': 709 Danish folk-dance tunes arranged for 1 violin (2 books), 2 violin (2 books), clarinet (1 book) and bass (1 book) arranged in wiener-classic style. It is the bible for people playing in the folk-dance clubs. I don't remember the price, but it is rather expensive, 200 dkr per book I guess (app. $35)
My spillemandslaug has produced an accord scheme for accordionists, guitarists etc. The 'Spillemandskreds' has also launched a great project of producing tunebooks from different regions with local tunes arranged for two violins + chords. Until now they have published 3 tunebooks thus covering the northern half of Jutland. I can highly recommend them. They can be bought from the same address as mentioned above for app. 100 - 150 dkr each.

(That's me!) We have published an annual tunebook almost every year since 1979. They are meant for internal use, but we also sell them. You can request a pricelist from me, and if demand is big enough, I will try to produce a description in English of each book.
