The Elsa Nilsson Quartet will perform a brand new set of music at this gorgeous outdoor concert series in the Bronx.

Combining the rich heritage of her Swedish homeland with modern jazz and varied musical influences from around the world, Nilsson and her quartet showcases arrangements of Swedish traditional music as well as original compositions.

She believes all folk music (including jazz) has a common thread, and that by weaving these threads together, a deeper, more intimate understanding among contrasting cultures can be reached. It is in this spirit that Elsa's "absolutely gorgeous” (Karen Pauley, KSER, Seattle) compositions shine through.

During this performance you can expect a wide range of styles to surface in an exciting journey through cultures and time periods as the band weaves new paths though the music.

This concert will showcase compositions inspired by wildflowers along the theme of the Wave Hill Summer Concert Series.

For all ages!
