Eric Ericson Chamber Choir (Choir)

The Eric Ericson Chamber Choir was founded in 1945 by Eric Ericson and has played a key role in the Swedish and international music ever since. The specific aims of the choir and its leader to seek out new music and new areas of work has today resulted in an extensive repertoire that ranges from the renaissance to the latest avant-garde. The Chamber Choir, with its characteristic Nordic sound and wide-ranging virtuosity, has been an ideal vehicle for several generations of Swedish composers.

The Eric Ericson Chamber Choir ranks alongside the world’s other great professional ensembles and it has received many international awards including the Deutscher Schallplattenpreis and the Edison Prize. The Choir undertakes several tours each year throughout Europe, the USA and Canada. The Choir has made numerous recordings of a cappella repertoire on a number of different recording labels.

Together with the Swedish Radio Choir, the Eric Ericson Chamber Choir has made several recordings with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra including Verdi’s Quattro pezzi sacri and Mozart’s Requiem with Riccardo Muti as well as Haydn’s The Creation and Beethoven’s Missa solemnis under the baton of James Levine. The Choir has made several appearances at La Scala in Milan under Riccardo Muti. The Choir has also worked on several occasions with Nikolaus Harnoncourt and his orchestra, the Concentus Musicus Wien, resulting in a recording of Handel’s Messiah amongst other works.

The Eric Ericson Chamber Choir and the Swedish Radio Choir have also been frequent guests at Berlin’s Philharmonie, where they have performed concerts resulting in recordings of Brahm’s Deutsches Requiem, Schumann’s Szenen aus Goethes Faust, Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony and Verdi’s Messa da Requiem with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra under Claudio Abbado.

Since 2003, the Eric Ericson Chamber Choir has enjoyed extensive collaboration with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra and the Stockholm Concert Hall, where it performs a large number of a cappella concerts and works for orchestra and choir each season.

In addition to their extensive a cappella projects, the Eric Ericson Chamber Choir also frequently collaborates with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra and the Drottningholm Baroque Ensemble, together recording all of Bach’s major oratorios. In 2007, the ensemble was awarded the Nordic Council’s Music Prize.
