More Than Nikolina Presented by the Twin Cities Nyckelharpalag
Attendees were exposed to a unique Swedish musical instrument, the Nyckelharpa. Attendees also were given an opportunity to listen to music performed by the Twin Cities Nyckelharpalag and view and participate in traditional Swedish dancing.
“It was a wonderful way to learn about the culture through music and dance.”
“Very interesting! Music I’ve never heard before. It was wonderful.”
“I just happened to be back in Milaca and am so glad that my sister-in-law said we needed to attend this program. After all – I am Swedish!”
“This was an excellent program. I enjoyed listening to the music; I liked hearing about the history of the instrument.”
“Very informative and entertaining. Just great!! I could listen and watch this for hours!”
East Central Regional Library, Milaca Area Historical Society, and North Chisago Historical Society. Each historical society paid for refreshments following the activity and helped advertise the program at each venue.
