USA – Utah

Brigham Young University American Folk Ensemble - Utah

Brigham Young University American Folk Ensemble, in short BYU American Folk Ensemble, is connected to the same-named university in Provo, Utah. They were the first non-European group ever to perform at our festival in 1964. This ensemble, too, has a special bond with Schoten. Through exhilarating dances and music they tell the rich cultural history of the USA . They perform a diverse program of classic Southern waltzes as well as square dancing and clogging . The group is accompanied by the BYU Mountain Strings band whose infectious repertoire gets everyone on the dance floor!
BYU Folk Dance is already looking forward to perform at the 62th Hello!Schoten festival!
