A Journey Through the Nordic Countries // Song and Lyric Café

The song duo Lene Oustrup and Peter Lorenzen and Vejle Library invite you to the first Song and Lyric Café in the new Cultural House at Willy Sørensens Plads 1. This evening will take us north: Lene and Peter will share songs they have collected on journeys throughout the entire Nordic region – from Denmark, Norway and Sweden to Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Finland, the Åland Islands and Greenland. Along the way, stories will be told about experiences and people, and some songs will be sung in the original language. The event is the fifth meeting in a new community with a focus on songs and stories. With a house orchestra, but also the possibility to contribute yourself.

It is free to participate, but please be kind to register.

About the Song and Lyric Café The Song and Lyric Café is a collaboration between Vejle Library and the musical duo Lene and Peter. Here, song and music, poetry and stories meet in a cozy setting – with varying themes, short presentations, musical elements and the opportunity to sing along. The audience can both listen and contribute with songs, poems or stories by prior agreement.

You are welcome to bring drinks to the evenings. When the café later moves into the new Cultural House, it will also be possible to use the house's café facilities.

About Lene and Peter The song duo Lene and Peter have since 2007 entertained with song and music throughout most of the country. They have previously performed under the names Viser i Vinden and Drachmanns Venner, but now they simply call themselves Lene and Peter. Their musical collaboration is based on a broad and lively repertoire, where both older and newer songs find a place side by side. They move from the serious to the humorous, from the sorrowful to the cheerful – always with a love for telling stories about the songs and placing them in a larger context.
