Stambandet Presents: Jul, An Exploration of Nordic Winter Traditions Celebrated Through Folk Music

Stämbandet invites you to join them as they trace the snowy path through the Scandinavian winter season. Learn about traditional and modern celebrations of the winter holidays as expressed through folk music in the Nordic countries.

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.

The evening of song will be Saturday, January 17, 2015 from 7:00-8:30pm at the Follen Church Society, 755 Massachusetts Ave., Lexington. The cost of the evening is $10.00 per person.
