This lunchtime concert with Swedish trio Väsen marks their second appearance since SMF 2009, when they performed with Mike Marshall and Darol Anger. Made up of Roger Tallroth on guitar, Mikael Marin on viola and Olov Johansson on nyckelharpa, the trio formed in the early 90s as an extension of the traditional music duo of Marin and Johansson. They have released 16 albums, and have toured every year outside of Europe, performing expansive instrumental music that is strongly rooted in Swedish traditional song forms.
