STORYTELLING AND MUSIC

We have travelled far and wide to find the most beautiful, enthralling and mysterious stories, melodies and songs, to take you on a journey to far away islands, deep forests and magical gardens.

Contact us and we will tailor a program to fit your audience.

We live in Albuquerque, New Mexico, but are happy to tour all through the country.

Johanna Hongell-Darsee; storyteller, dancer, mime; and Scott Darsee, guitarist, composer, will take you on a journey of Ballads and Runes, Myths and Legends with traditional and non-traditional Storytelling techniques.

 

  

The art of storytelling is universal and as ancient as humanity; our dreams of a distant common past. Stories travel and have always traveled. On their way they pick up bits and pieces of different cultures and landscapes but the heroes and heroines, the villains and the mysterious creatures often stay familiar. We tell stories using music, song, masks, dance and mime.
