Ale Carr - Swedish Polska Medley on Cittern

The cittern, along with other fretted string instruments like the mandola or bouzouki, found its way into the scandinavian folk scene in the 80's, and has since become a staple.
Ale Carr is an amazing musician who plays in different folk groups like Dreamer's Circus and Basco, in this video he plays two polskas:
Polska efter Enninger and an unnamed polska composed by himself.
