Nora Parish Choir, Sweden
Choir performance
Conductor: Björn Eckerrot
The choir accounts for most of the worship music in the churches. Without the church choirs, worship services during the church year would be very poor. The choirs participate primarily on major weekends. Easter, Kristi Himmelsfärd (Ascension Day), Pentecost All Saints Day, Advent and Christmas.
In addition to this, we perform a major musical work every year. We have all-song concerts and show us in different contexts.
Nora Bergslag Parish choir has become a choir since autumn 2007. Today the choir consists of about 40 singers and there is a great spread between the ages. The youngest is 39 years and the oldest 82 years. But we have no matter how old we are.
The choirs sing a varied repertoire with the main emphasis on the weekends of the choir and the songs are therefore highly adapted to the worship service. We work a lot with soloists and other musicians where we are given the opportunity to broaden our repertoire.
Every third year, it is planned for a trip. Since 2006 we went to Russia, Italy, England.
