Abstract
The 21st Annual Jussi-Fest in Voxnabruk went off successfully July 3 and 4 despite challenges: Norwegian tenor Bror Magnus Tödenes, who had been scheduled to appear, was forced to cancel due to a death in the family. As arranger Stefan Olmårs noted, you can’t have a Jussi event without a tenor, so he brought along veteran Swedish tenor Sonny Wallentin and his accompanist wife. They both performed valiantly.
