9 - FOLK FROM THE NORTH LANDS : MUSICA VITAE

As part of their residency, the player from Musica Vitae presents a concert of music from Scandinavia interspersed with folk music arrangements from their native Sweden.  The Norwegian Grieg’s evergreen baroque-inspired Holberg Suite is peppered through the programme which draws on the talents of the ensemble’s violinist Märten Sundén as arranger of a fascinating and toe-tapping selection of traditional music.   Following the Swedish theme, the concert is followed by coffee and cinnamon buns from Orkney’s own Eviedale Bakehouse.
