The Fargo Public Library will host a special performance by Thirteen Strings from Scandinavia on Saturday, Sept. 6, starting at 2 p.m. at the downtown Main Library as part of the 2025 One Book, One Community reading program.
The Grammy-nominated duo of Andrea Hoag and Loretta Kelley will present a varied program of Scandinavian folk tunes played on the violin and the rarely heard Hardanger fiddle. Both performers draw on their knowledge and experiences from years of immersion in these traditions for a lively performance embellished with songs, mouth music and humorous tidbits of Scandinavian folklore. All ages are welcome to this free concert. Contact Lori at 701.476.5977 for more information.
