"In the
autumn of 2011,
I played "The
Ambre Pearl from
Mårhøj
mound". 43 times the storie was told inside the burial chamber of the largest single-chamber passage grave "Mårhøj passage grave" at Hindsholm on Funen. Here I had the great pleasure to be able to use a drum and assorted rattles which Erik and Suzanne had made for me. The ritual instruments helped me to feel a completely different time, The Stone Age, and through the show they bore the storie. They became right away part of me - My beautiful telling tools. Anette Jahn, storyteller from measurement telling Theatre. Hi Susanne and Erik, The drum is here. The way you carefully packed the drum in its box was very impressive and requires so much skill! This drum is absolutely beautiful and the sound is mesmerizing...it echoes within itself. I am hearing other almost bell-like sounds, as you had described. I knew the drum was going to be great but I am shocked at its presence; it is very powerful and I feel the need to "feed" it somehow. Maybe it wants to tell me its name. I shall sit with the drum for a long while and see what comes. Thank you for such a wonderful companion and for your great service and kindness. I will be contacting you again...I think I will also need one of your rattles in the future. :) Also, I love the beater, and the juniper incense! I will be buying more of that from you, as well. :) Sending much gratitude to you both, Stephanie - Oregon - USA

"I'm delighted with my smudgebowl, thank
you very much shamantrommer !"
Ian Duffy (Dundalk, Ireland)
Erik and Susanne...
just
wanted to let you know that my beautiful drum and drum stick
have arrived this morning in perfect condition.
I
once again want to express my deepest appreciation to both of
you for all of the listening to spirit and energy you have put
into not only this drum but undoubtedly all the drums and shamanic
tools you make. I feel priviledged and gifted in such a
profound way to be able to carry forward the vibration of your
land--the trees, the animals, and the people, into my land and to
the many lands that this drum is asking to be taken. I will use
the juniper in a special ceremony to bless this drum into my
home and into my being in the knowing that it shall always be also
connected to you, as all of us are connected in spirit.
May the clarity and the sweetness and the rich vibration of "Bells in Tibet" find you always in good health and with many blessings. Much Love...Tara,XXX. Canada Hello Erik and Susanne,
Many months later
... I am still in awe of my beautiful drum. When I use her
I can see a face appearing in the drum, looking out at me, always in
the same place. Also, I and many others that have been present when I
have been drumming have heard the sound of singing above the sound of
the drumming. I feel that this is the spirit of Freya. Words cannot
describe how special this drum is to me and I am so grateful to
both of you for creating such a beautiful and magical being.
Brightest
blessings to you both,
Mai -
Leicestershire in England, UK!
Dear Erik and Susanne, The drum you sent me arrived yesterday, beautifully packed and in perfect condition. Just like Snakedancer Rattle, it is more perfect for me than I had imagined. I very much appreciated the Juniper smudge you included. I used it in a lovely ceremony to welcome the new drum home and to introduce her to my few special stones and Snakedancer rattle. I look forward to establishing a wonderful relationship with my new drum! - As I have had a lot of smudging to do lately, I can understand now how feather fans can be quite helpful (experience is a good teacher). I could also see how these might be useful to gently brush off any negativity or stress that might have been brought home after a difficult day. Is this a typical use for them? - Thank you so much for all your help, Erik and Susanne. I feel so fortunate to have received such beautiful instruments made with such care, attention and love. Wishing you all the best, Dear Erik and Susanne,
I
received the rattle last Thursday. Thank you so much for getting
it to me so soon. I love the rattle, it is beautiful and the sound
is wonderful.
My
teacher's birthday is in the middle of October. I am certain she
will love using it during ceremonies.
Thank
you again.
Blessings
to you both,
Myrian,
USA

Dear Susanne and Erik,
Airborne Eagle arrived this evening in perfect condition. It is profoundly beautiful. Every detail of it made with such love and intent. I just finished playing it for the first time. Not until I stopped playing can I sense how different I feel. Deeply quiet, full, a resonant feeling from my lower left rib cage up to my head. I really don't have words to describe my sensations. THANK YOU!!!!!!!

Hi
Susanne
Hi...Susanne
The rattles came today! They are far more beautiful in hand than in
pictures. The wood with each rattle has wonderful and distinct character.
Thank you for creating these treasures and sending instructions for use
and safe keeping.
Thank you again for your fine craftsmanship.

you for the drum I bought from you last year it was the one called lagoon. I have been working with it and it really has become a great friend. You really make remarkable drums and once again thank you for creating these beautiful tools to work with. All the best for 2007 Robert, Wiltshire - England
