Tusen Tungor is a treble choir based in Stockholm, consisting of 30 choristers between 23 and 41 years old under the direction of Linnea Landström, conductor and artistic director. The choir moves between contemporary art music, 4th century prayers and folk music with a constant curiosity for expression and sound formation. The choir took shape in the spring of 2024 based on an observed need - to gather experienced vocalists who are not necessarily classically trained or can read music, but who want to make music with like-minded people in a permissive climate with a high level of ambition. Thanks to the choristers' different musical backgrounds, an interesting sound is created and a fine sensitivity to choir as an art form.
Since the start, the choir has had sold-out concerts at Teater Tribunalen, Hägerstensåsens Medborgarhus and Marabouparkens Konsthall. In September 2024, they participated in the acclaimed performance Stockholm City Blues with the work “Lower my rent and love me forever”, with lyrics by Lina Rydén Reynols and music by Linnea Landström.
In the spring of 2025, Tusen Tungor performs in the Eric Ericson hall together with Konstmusiksystrar and Moderna Dansteatern, where “DUNKA DUNKA” by choreographer Ellen Söderhulth and newly written choral music are tied together in a melting dance concert.
