With Sarah Granskou "Embers Remember the Spark". In Old Norse, "kve" indicates both singing and telling. Through intricate poetic narrative and song, fiddle, flute and jawharp, Sarah Granskou applies her Canadian sense of innovation to the Norwegian oral tradition. While Sarah draws on ancient art forms, her moving and humourous works belong in a contemporary niche all her own. Sarah has sampled various cultures and dialects, accompanying the Sami reindeer migration, working on Norwegian farms, playing for weddings at a Swedish church of ice, building 8-string fiddles and living amongst Canada's Inuit. Through combining languages, Sarah creates a comprehensible multicultural dialect. Cost: $15/Per person |
