Gunhild Carling & Loudoun Symphonic Winds
Swedish Jazz Star Gunhild Carling shares the stage with Loudoun Symphonic Winds. She plays multiple instruments, sings and tap dances. She performs all over the world, with over 50 million views in YouTube, Facebook and other platforms.
Gunhild Carling is Sweden’s queen of swing, jazz, and vaudeville — a multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and entertainer who has captivated audiences on every continent. Born into the legendary Carling musical dynasty, she picked up her first instrument before she could walk and has never stopped playing. Today she commands the trombone, trumpet, banjo, piano, accordion, harmonica, bagpipes, and more — sometimes several in a single performance.
“Sweden's Gunhild Carling is truly a musical experience to behold. The talented vocalist and multi-instrumentalist is an Internet sensation and a marvelous throwback to the days of the Classic Entertainers of the '20s and '30s.” —All About Jazz
