It’s finally summer! The singers are enjoing their well earned vacation, but we are not quiet… April last year we recorded some music in Limhamns Church and we can finally share the results with you. We primarily recorded some newly written music for a documentary (Sweet Störy, about an American pastry chef who takes over a café in the Stockholm archipelago), but we also had the opportunity to record some traditional swedish songs along with some new music by Swedish composers. Keep a look-out in our social media as well as our YouTube-channel, where we will share some of the music during the summer. The songs will soon also appear on a streaming service of your choice.

We’ll meet again in the autumn when we will perform in S:t Andreas Church in Malmö, Osby Church and at Malmö Live, where we will perform Mozart’s Requiem. And the traditional Christmas concert of course.

Have a lovely summer!

Right now we are working hard for the upcoming performance of Bach’s glorious mass i B-minor, together with Vox Mariae and musicians from Helsingborgs Symfoniorkester in St. Maria Kyrka in Helsingborg. It’s a lot of music to rehearse, including a range of fugues with rapid notes. Please come and listen to this masterpiece!

A big thank you to everyone who attended our Christmas concerts in Allhelgonakyrkan and Lundtofte Kirke in Lyngby. Without our audience we would be nothing! We will soon enjoy our well earned Christmas break, but we still have one more Monday rehearsal to go. Now we will start looking at David Conte’s Gloria which we will record in January. No rest for the wicked…

Merry Christmas to you all!

This past weekend, Lunds Vokalensemble went on a lovely tour and visited Sofiakyrkan in Jönköping, S:t Jacobs kyrka in Stockholm and Växjö domkyrka. A big thank you to all of you who attended our concerts and an especially big thank you to the churches for inviting us. We are in awe and very happy about the great response we got from the audiences on this, our first tour together with Ragnar Bohlin.

Of course we want to give our audience at home a chance to enjoy the musical programme of the tour as well. Therefore, we will perform the music again in Allhelgonakyrkan in Lund on April 14th at 5 pm.

Most welcome!

Lunds Vokalensemble are looking for tenors and basses! Are you an experienced singer with good sight reading skills and looking for new musical adventures? Come and join us!

Under the guidance of our conductor Ragnar Bohlin, you will create music on a high level while enjoying a warm fellowship in the choir. On the agenda for the spring are, among other things, a small tour to Jönköping, Stockholm and Växjö together with concerts at home in Skåne. We are rehearsing on Monday evenings.

Maria Lindroth has been elected new chairman for Lunds Vokalensemble. Emma Lund, our previous chairman, is now handing over the reins after six years at the helm. She will now be able to enjoy being “just” a singer in the choir. We are extremely grateful for Emmas contributions during this time, where she among other things navigated a pandemic with all the challenges the choir experienced. Emma was thanked for her services at the annual general meeting on October 9th, 2023.

Maria has been a member of the choir for a long time and we are all certain that she will be able to steer the ship with a warm and steady hand, together with our new conductor Ragnar Bohlin.

-I’m incredibly happy and honored for the vote of conficence from the choir members, Maria Lindroth says. It’s big shoes to fill, now that I am taking over the post from Emma, who has done a really fantastic job these past six years. But, with such an amazing board, choir and conductor, the road ahead can’t be anything less than exciting!

A big congratulations to Maria and a heartfelt thank you to Emma for your contributions! We will now continue our work with new, exciting and challenging musical adventures.
