Join YourClassical MPR host Steve Staruch and fellow classical music lovers to experience the Nordic world of fjords, castles, glaciers, and the legacy of the Vikings on this Minnesota Public Radio and Earthbound Expeditions adventure. Travel by train, ferry, and coach through Sweden, Denmark, and Norway. Ride the world's most scenic railway lines to Bergen, tour Danish castles and palaces and attend the Oslo and Copenhagen classical music festivals.
