Svanholm Singers is an internationally acclaimed[1][2][3] Swedish male-voice chamber choir founded in 1998 and based in Lund.
The choir is led by conductor Sofia Söderberg,[4] and is known for its precise intonation, tonal focus, and vivid dynamics.
With a core repertoire centered around the Scandinavian and Baltic choral tradition, including collaborations with the Estonian composer Veljo Tormis, the choir promotes new compositions or arrangements for men's chorus.
It has commissioned works by, among others, Knut Nystedt (Norway), Peter Bruun (Denmark), John Milne (USA), Arturo Salinas (Mexico), and Swedish composers Tobias Broström, Christian Engquist and Daniel Hjort.
In 2012, it announced the Svanholm Singers Composition Award (prize money $9,500),[5] which attracted 46 entries from five continents.
