Dwight Lamb is an important American old-time fiddler. Discovered by Danish champion folk musicians, he is now influential in Denmark. He learned Danish tunes as a child from his immigrant grandfather. Dwight in Denmark tells this story and follows a tour that he and the Danish musicians made. Their work together led to the rediscovery of many traditional tunes that had become extinct in Denmark.
