Stämbandet Jul Concert

Stämbandet, the Scandinavian Vocal Ensemble, invites you for a festive celebration of the Nordic holiday tradition. 

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.

A holiday reception of snacks and treats will follow.  Tickets may be purchased in advance from the church office for a discounted price.
