Stämbandet, the Scandinavian Vocal Ensemble, invites you
for a festive celebration of the Nordic springtime tradition Saturday, May 5th at 7 p.m. The concert will take place at
Peace Lutheran Church, located at 107 Concord Road Wayland, MA 01778. A reception will follow.
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.
Proceeds from the concert will benefit Metro West
Interfaith Hospitality Network. Tickets:
Adults $15, Children/ Students/ Seniors $10.
