Atlanta's Vasa Drängar will celebrate its 20th anniversary with a concert at Winters Chapel United Methodist Church. They will perform ā cappella as well as with an ensemble from Atlanta Balalaika Society and pianist Gabe Granitz. A special guest is coming from the Royal Swedish Opera in Stockholm, Sweden - tenor Niklas Björling Rygert, who since 1999 sings with the permanent soloist's ensemble at this opera house.
At the concert will be heard beautiful Swedish folk songs as well as exciting songs in Russian, songs from Pavarotti's and Jussi Björling's repertoire, English ballads and even a couple ABBA favorites. The Atlanta Balalaika Society will feature its soloists Angelina Galashenkova-Reed, Alla Melnik and David C. Cooper.
