MALMO CHAMBER CHOIR

The first concert of the Malmö Chamber Choir took place in November 1975 and was widely acclaimed in southern Sweden. Since then the choir has given about seven hundred concerts and made recordings for record companies, television and radio. Most of the concerts have been given in Skåne, some thirty in Norrland and more than a hundred in other parts of Sweden. In all, some hundred concerts have been given during tours in Denmark, Norway, Finland, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Switzerland, Hungary, Belgium, Holland, England, Israel and the United States. There have also been a number of first performances of works specially written for Dan-Olof Stenlund and his ensemble. Over the years many choir members have been recruited from the Malmö Academy of Music and from the Copenhagen Royal Academy of Music. After a few years in the choir several of them have then pursued their own careers, winning great success as soloists, conductors and church musicians.
