PANORAMIC VOICES PRESENTS

SKÁL
Featuring Norðanfólk

FEBRUARY 21 & 22 | ST. JOHN'S STUDIOS

Panoramic Voices and Norðanfólk join forces for a Renaissance Festival–style concert of Nordic folk, choral spectacle, pirate songs, and ico

Raise your horn, gather your guild, and join Panoramic Voices for its most adventurous concert of the season. In collaboration with beloved local band Norðanfólk, this Renaissance Festival–inspired experience blends evocative Nordic folk originals with epic choral arrangements, pirate anthems, and iconic video game music (yes, including Skyrim). With a 140-voice choir, driving rhythms, and Norðanfólk’s commanding stage presence, Skál transforms the concert hall into a vibrant realm of fantasy, folklore, and communal celebration.

But Skál is more than a concert—it’s a full fantasy experience. Expect themed cocktails, local vendors, a photo booth, and a crowd ready to lean into the fun. Whether you’re a fantasy fan, a choral music lover, or just looking for a wildly fun night out in Austin, Skál invites you to experience “music without borders” like never before. Costumes encouraged!

Presenter Details

  • Name: Panoramic Voices
  • Panoramic Voices enriches the lives of Central Texas music lovers with inclusive and innovative musical experiences that encourage collaboration, showcase regional talent, and create opportunities for diverse participants and audiences.

    Directed by Juli Orlandini, Panoramic Voices is an adventurous choral collective that thrives on a “music without borders” approach to music making. With collaborations spanning all genres from classical, country, rock, hip hop, and beyond, PV has worked with a dizzying array of artists such as Mobley, Roky Erickson, Carson McHone, Calliope Musicals, Zeale, and Grammy Award-winners Roomful of Teeth. The commissioning of new works has also been an important part of Panoramic Voice’s mission, resulting in the premiere of compositions by Pulitzer Prize-winner Caroline Shaw, Wilco’s Glenn Kotche, Austin luminary Graham Reynolds, and many more.

    The ensemble has been widely recognized for its artistic endeavors, including “Best Choral Performance” from the Austin Critics’ Table, a cover story on Chorus America’s “The Voice” magazine, and regular listing among the Austin Chronicles “Top 10 Treasures.” In 2014, the Austin Chronicle dubbed Brent Baldwin (Panoramic Voice’s past Artistic Director) “Best Choral Wrangler” in its “Best of Austin” awards. The Austin American Statesman has hailed the group’s work as “always adventurous.”

    In service to the greater Austin arts community, Panoramic Voices regularly partners with charitable organizations like the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians (HAAM), SIMS, and Kids In a New Groove (KING) to provide support to the well-being of Austin artists.
