More polka, more joy, more Hangasjärvi!

The audience asked for another performance – so now you get it! The explosive folk music show with the accordion virtuoso from Kivijärvi and the pop wonder from Pajala is back.

When Fredrik Hangasjärvi and Sanna Kalla , together with their phenomenal band, took the stage last year, the room was filled with rhythms, stories and pure musical joy. The audience's reactions became part of the performance – the tjoing, the clapping and all that happens when something hits deep.

"You got right into the innermost part of the Tornedal soul. You get everything: both melancholy and joy of life," says Umeå Teaterförening's own Tarja.

Sister Poland and Hangasjärvi, 4 national women and one man!

Sister Poland and Norrbotten accordionist Fredrik Hangasjärvi have come together to create a folk music concert with songs and ballads from Uppland, Dalarna and Tornedalen. Five national fiddlers come together to offer a mix of traditional songs and their own compositions. The songs are framed by ballads in Swedish, Älvdalen and Meänkieli, along with colorful stories.

Systerpolskan was formed when Benny Andersson invited them to his studio in 2015. Sweet music emerged and resulted in the critically acclaimed album Randig kjortel . The group appeared in Allsång på Skansen in 2016 and 2018 and have played on various stages around Sweden since their album debut.
