Nordic Jul

Stämbandet, the Scandinavian Vocal Ensemble, invites you for a festive celebration of Nordic winter traditions Saturday, December 21st at 7 p.m.  The concert will take place at Peace Lutheran Church, located at 107 Concord Road Wayland, MA 01778.   

Founded in 1978, Stämbandet has a reputation for excellence both as an a cappella ensemble and a World Music vocal group. Presenting songs rarely heard outside of Iceland, Norway, Finland, Denmark, and Sweden, this captivating vocal band often breaks into six- and seven- part harmonies sung in six languages. Led by Allen LeVines, musical director since 1985, Stämbandet performs a wide range of a cappella folk traditions unique to Scandinavia, including "trall" - singers imitating fiddlers playing dance music - a practice that has been compared to scat singing.

There will be a holiday reception following the performance.  Please visit www.stambandetjul.brownpapertickets.com for discounts on advance tickets: Adults $12; Children, Students, Seniors $8. Tickets at the door: Adults $15; Children, Students, Seniors $10.
