In our efforts to be a ‘cool’ website most would not expect to see the name 'Allsång på Skansen' in our articles but that’s what makes Urbanlife different. We are constantly searching for the best of Afro-Swedish life and it’s influences in culture and you’d be surprised where you’d find it.
'Allsång på Skansen' is a show held at Skansen in Stockholm, every summer. The audience is encouraged to sing along to well-known Swedish songs chosen by the shows performers (yeah, I know, you’re asking where the cool part is). The show started in 1935 with about fifty people in the audience but today boasts about 10 000-15 000 people at each performance every Tuesday evening. Like kicking your feet in the sand- one day you’ll hit something and we were pleased to hear what happened when Classic Music met The King of Pop with a few others lesser groups like the Beatles, I think! Watch the MozART GROUP from Poland below, consisting of; Filip Jaslar on first violin, Michal Sikorski - second violin, Pawel Kowaluk – viola and Bolek Blaszczyk on cello. Educated instrumentalists who graduated from prestigious Academies of Music in Warsaw, they decided to play classical music in a humorous way.
