Ola Bøe

Ola Bøe (July 10, 1910 – September 7, 1986) was a Norwegian fiddler. Ola Bøe was born in the municipality of Vestre Slidre in Oppland county, Norway, the son of Per Person Bøe (1859–1922) and Rangdi Jakobsdotter (1867–1934). His father played the Hardanger fiddle but died when Ola was twelve years old. As a result, he learned many tunes from his mother, who was good at humming dance tunes. He also learned tunes from his elder brother Jørgen (1904–1986), and considered himself a student of Andris Øde, Alf Moe, and Olav Moe. Bøe resided at Nadderud and died in Bærum.
