A reception of snacks and treats 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 Family Promise Metro West.=0D=0A=0D=0AStart time:7:00 PM
