It was such a gift to sing at St. Staffanskyrkan in Gävle, Sweden! We collaborated with the Valbo Vocal Ensemble and the Tonverket Youth Choir conducted by the lovely Ellen Weiss. We had the pleasure of meeting Ellen on Augustana’s campus during the spring semester. Thank you to the church, choirs, and Ellen for being amazing hosts. They even set up a traditional Swedish childhood game where we got to go “fishing!” We had so much fun. Please enjoy this video of us singing the Swedish song “Pingst” in collaboration with the choirs (video in the comments).

We performed our second concert at Rättvik Church last night in Rättvik, Sweden. Rattvik is a small charming lakeside town on Lake Siljan. We stayed in a retreat center close to the town and had the opportunity to enjoy the nature through canoeing, swimming, volleyball and more. Thank you to our lovely hosts for sharing this amazing space with us. We are grateful for another concert with a fabulous audience. Please enjoy a clip from the beginning of the song “The New Colossus,” a song that features the famous words etched on the Statue of Liberty “give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free.” (video posted in the comments)
