**********************
After Tony's Lovello's performance the
audience will have a
little taste ( a preview ) of
Old Fashioned Scandinavian Dance Music !
They will present a full
concert of old-time Scandinavian dance music at 7:00 PM.
Their goal is to share their passion for this lively traditional music—and to
have fun!
Their skills and enthusiasm have been recognized in many annual festivals in
Norway,
in two previous tours of USA’s East coast, and by the Norwegian Accordionist’s
Association, in which one of the members was past president.
Taking their name from
the old county of Aker, now incorporated into Oslo,
GAS translates to "Old Aker Band Players."
The band has released two CDs:
"Waltzes, Rheinlanders And Even More" in 2002,
and "DDV" (not DVD) in 2008.
7 PM, Monday June 23
