Chorus Pictor Choir
Chorus Pictor is a Lutheran choir from Täby Parish north of Stockholm. The name of the choir is inspired by Albertus Pictor’s wall paintings in the old stone church which dates from 1280.
Erika Alfredsson-Bohlin has conducted the choir since 2017. The Chorus Pictor choir has about 40 singers between the ages of 25 and 60. The Choir’s repertoire is a mixture of both sacred and non-church music including Benjamin Britten, Mozart, Bach, Ola Gjeilo, classical Swedish music and more.
