Stockholm Academic Male Chorus / Stockholms Studentsångare was founded in 1905 and is one of Sweden’s leading male choirs.
Today the choir has 59 active members consisting mainly of academics of all disciplines; both students and graduated. The repertoire is very broad and rooted in all parts of the male chorus literature: old and new; profane and sacred.
Recurrent events in the activities of the choir are the yearly spring and christmas concerts, performance at the graduation and installation ceremony at Stockholm university, performances at Stockholm City Hall, CD productions, performances on television, tours and much more…
H.M. King Carl XVI Gustaf has permanent patronage of Stockholm Academic Male Chorus.
