The accomplished trio Northern Accord will perform at Brigham Young University Friday, Jan. 12, at 7:30 p.m. in the Madsen Recital Hall in the Harris Fine Arts Center. Admission is free.
The group is made up of three women who all have ties to Alaska. The group features mezzo-soprano Kirsten Gunlogson, Liz Gunlogson on clarinet and Eileen Cornett on piano. The group performs a variety of styles, from classical works to Alaskan folk music.
Northern Accord will begin with a Mozart piece, do a set of songs from Alaska and then move to traditional folk songs like "Johnny Has Gone for a Soldier." After the intermission, listeners will hear "Tonada y Cueca" by Carlos Guastavino, a composer from Argentina, in addition to more folk music and other selections.
