Wedding Performance
On
Saturday, July 25, 2015, members of the Wawel Folk Ensemble had the great honor
of performing at the wedding of one of its alumni members. Members of the Ensemble assisted the parents
of the bride and groom with presenting the newlyweds with bread and salt, as is
the cherished Slavic custom, while the choreographer and director of the
ensemble provided the guests with the background of this tradition.
Following
the presentation of bread and salt, the Ensemble performed the Krakowiak and
its Sieradz suite. The Wawel Folk
Ensemble sends warm wishes to the newlyweds as they start their life together.
Wawel’s
next public performance is Sunday, August 9, 2015 at the Sweetest Heart of Mary
Pierogi Festival in Detroit, Michigan.
