Listening to Olivier Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time in Storkyrkan on Holocaust Memorial Day is an experience marked by both historical memory and spiritual presence. On this memorial day, it resonates as a musical meditation on both the wounds of history and the light that, against all odds, continues to shine through the darkness.

"Boys’ Choir Under the Vaults” is the name of the annual vocal event that brings together the boys’ and men’s choirs from the nation’s cathedrals. This year’s program features works by Bernstein, Howells, Britten, and Bach.

Experiencing the English tradition of evensong is like stepping into another time and another world – as the calm of evening descends, the space is filled with powerful choral singing that, together with the sound of the organ, carries the ancient liturgy. This year’s evensong is part of the Diocese of Stockholm’s church music festival Jubilate, which this year focuses on Norwegian music.

This year’s church music festival in the Diocese of Stockholm — Jubilate — highlights contemporary Norwegian church music by some of the country’s most significant composers — Petra Bjørkhaug, Knut Nystedt, Torbjørn Dyrud, and Kim André Arnesen — performed by the St. Matthew Chamber Choir, Adolf Fredrik Church Chamber Choir, and Gustavsberg Vocal Ensemble.

Listen to Carl Unander-Scharin’s and Mattias Wager’s interpretation of Winterreise — Schubert’s twenty-four remarkable, sorrowful, and multifaceted songs, in which the singer gives voice to a solitary wanderer in a barren winter landscape that mirrors his vulnerability — alone, abandoned, and lost. The piano part comments on and supports the emotional states and atmospheres.
