A TRIANGLE FROM KRAGELUND

Midtjyske Tæpper - Anne Mette Larsen - Noder

ANDERS ”TOP” ANDERSEN

What is a triangle doing in a square book about well-crafted blankets…?

(It is always possible that it has lost its bearings…) but it does provide an apt little soundscape to accompany the yellowing archival photos.

Anders “Top” Andersen (1855 – 1953) from Kragelund in Mid-Jutland may have played at dances held for the paper-production workers at Klostermølle, guests at the spa bath facility, or the freshly-bathed customers from the bathhouse…though he never did make it to Tinnet Krat.

The world was, after all, much larger back then.

Today, Anders ‘Top’ Andersen’s music is carried forward by performer Maja Kjær Jacobsen.

’Lulu’ in 1904 or earlier. Back when a motorboat route passed from Alken Harbour to Klostermølle carrying wood one way and paper pulp the other.
