After landing in Sweden the Harvardians will make their headquarters at the Chateau Lerchenborg in the environs of Copenhagen. They will remain at that point for some three weeks, furnishing music and entertainment, before setting out on their journey on the road.

Once they have left Copenhagen they intend to cover in part Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and venture into Germany. Engagements have been made to do a large number of various kinds of jobs including theatre contracts, convention work, and dance music all along the way.
