$Skye Consort & Emma Bj\u00f6rling$

“Lots of groups combine elements of music from Scandinavia, Ireland, Scotland, England, and French Canada. None of them do it like Skye Consort.” ~ The Berkshire Edge
Recipients of the prestigious Opus Award for 2019 Album of the Year with their debut (World music and Traditional Québec music), Skye Consort & Emma Björling perform trans-Atlantic chamber folk arrangements of songs and tunes from Sweden, Norway, Ireland, Scotland, England, Québec, Acadia, the USA, as well as original compositions. Each musician brings their own individual interpretation to these traditions to create an extraordinary collaboration, consisting of voices, fiddle, nyckelharpa, cello, bouzouki, banjo, and percussion. Together they produce an assortment of whirling polskas, moving reels, passionate love songs, and breathtaking hymns and songs.
