The Tamburitzans Bring "The Shared Song" to Harrisburg, PA – A Global Celebration on Saturday, January 10, 2026
Harrisburg, PA – Prepare to be transported around the world without ever leaving your seat as The Tamburitzans, America’s longest-running multicultural song and dance ensemble, bring their newest production, “The Shared Song,” to Bishop McDevitt High School Auditorium on Saturday, January 10, 2026 at 3pm. Known for their high-energy performances and brilliant cultural authenticity, The Tamburitzans promise an afternoon of unforgettable sights, sounds, and stories from across Europe—and beyond.
Audiences of all ages will be whisked away on a journey through bustling town squares and quiet countryside villages as “The Shared Song” showcases traditional music and dance from Eastern Europe—with a rousing detour through an Irish pub! From the soul-stirring harmonies of Croatian folk singers to the fiery footwork of Serbian kolo, the performance brings to life the pulse of centuries-old traditions. And don’t be surprised if you find yourself tapping your toes to the unmistakable sounds of the bodhran (The heartbeat of the Irish pub. This hand-held drum may look unassuming, but in the right hands it’s rowdy, rhythmic, and wildly contagious).
But this show isn’t just about music and movement—it’s about connection. In addition to homegrown talent, The Tamburitzans' 2025-26 ensemble includes talented student-performers from Kazakhstan, Serbia, and Spain, each of whom brings a unique personal heritage and perspective to the stage. For many of these artists, “The Shared Song” is more than a performance—it’s a deeply meaningful tribute to their own cultures and a chance to share them with American audiences. "It feels like I’m telling my story, and the story of my country, through music," says Aleksandar Milkovic, who grew up surrounded by the jazzy music of the kafana. From the flamenco-infused spirit of Spain to the proud traditions of Serbia, these international artists remind us that art, like music, transcends borders.
With more than 85 years of history behind them, The Tamburitzans have enchanted generations of fans with their dazzling blend of tradition and innovation. “The Shared Song” continues that legacy, offering a celebration of diversity, unity, and the joyful rhythm that connects us all. Whether you're a lifelong Tamburitzans’ fan or new to the magic, this performance promises an evening you won’t forget. Catch The Tamburitzans live in Harrisburg on January 10. Come for the costumes, stay for the steps—and leave with your heart a little more in tune with the world.

Then, join the Tamburitzans at St. Nicholas Church Hall for a "Meet the Tammies" Dance.
