JUBILEUMS-FRACKTUELLT
Singer friends and friends of song! Honorary members, active and former singers and closest choir friends!
The Linköping Student Choir's 50th anniversary is fast approaching and with barely 40 days left until our anniversary weekend, the preparations are in full swing. We hope that you have already registered yourself and your +1 from before, but otherwise here is a reminder along with some new information about everything that is worth knowing. But first we want to inform you about our other activities during the anniversary year.
Is this, against all odds, the first you've heard about this fall's jubilee? Feel free to get in touch at info@lkss.se and we will make sure that you receive all the information that is not included in today's mailing.
The choir's anniversary book, for which Hans Lundgren has been editor, is now officially launched and is available at all well-sorted booksellers (in Sweden at least). It will also be for sale at the anniversary where you can also get it signed!
Swedish Wind Music Festival
Do you want to hear a little extra from the choir this year? This year we are participating in the Gala Concert in Crusellhallen at the Swedish Wind Music Festival on September 17 at 7:00 p.m. Together with the Uppsala Wind Symphony Orchestra, we will perform magical male voice choir music. You can find more information here or on our website lkss.se.
Christmas anniversary concerts in St. Lars
Why not take the opportunity to go to the choir's Christmas anniversary concerts? As usual, we perform our Christmas concerts in St. Lars church on November 30, December 1 and 3 with an accompanying Christmas party on Saturday! The tickets will be released later in the autumn.
Anniversary weekend
Concert and festivities on October 22
However, the culmination of the anniversary year is clearly, as previously mentioned, on October 22 with our anniversary concert and associated banquet. We cannot express in words how much we look forward to celebrating the past 50 years with you!

Alfvén, Gryning vid havet
Stenhammar, Sverige
We will perform the songs in this order at the end of the concert and hope you will join us in the mightiest of anniversary endings!
