Delafield Contra Dance

A place to "Dance as if no one was watching"

IndepenDance Daze Weekend
Prairie Hill Waldorf School in Delafield, WI
July 2-4, 2010

Andrew, Noah & Kim VanNorstrand' The core of Great Bear's instrumentation has always been twin fiddles and piano (ably supplied by mother Kim) but the line up is frequently augmented by mandolins, guitars, banjo and an assortment of percussion including the African djembe and the Australian didgeridoo. Andrew and Noah compose and arrange the majority of Great Bear's material, drawing heavily on Celtic and Appalachian fiddling traditions for their melodies but with plenty of room for improvisation and an occasional alt-rock or world beat groove creeping into the rhythm section.

	Niles Fredland "Nils teaches with clarity and calls with an enthusiasm that is totally contagious...he has achieved that wonderful balance so elusive to most callers. He calls masterfully and still remembers to bring his soul to each and every one of his dances."
