OSKAR STENMARK | NORDIC SUMMER JAZZ
Our popular Nordic Summer Jazz Series returns to Scandinavia House, with performances from some of Scandinavia’s most talented jazz musicians, composers, and singers in Victor Borge Hall! On June 18, join us for a night of the past, present, and future as horn player Oskar Stenmark takes the stage. A 10th-generation musician originally from Gothenburg, Sweden, Oskar presents a journey where centuries of music and stories come together—thanks to his grandmother, Elsie Börjes who has kept these traditions alive. Elsie went on tour in the U.S. (including New York City) with a group of fiddlers from Rättvik, Dalecarlia, back in 1956. Seventy years later, the music is still going! The performance will feature footage captured on the 1956 tour, creating a multisensory experience where tradition meets innovation. Purchase Tickets
