A sampler of the best performances from the Nordic Music Festival, an annual event held in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Opens with Lena Willmark, segues to Annbjorg Lien on hardanger fiddle, then transitions to a tender dance piece choreographed to the music of Filarfolket. Ally Bain and Alle Mohler demonstrate the ties between the Nordic and Shetland Island traditions, Ranarim reharmonize a love song, Bäsk re-arrranges some traditional dance tunes, and Väsen closes, by bringing the house down.
