Who are we?

Kongl. Teknologkören (KTK) is a student choir at The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, belonging to the Student union, THS. We are a mixed choir with about 40–45 members.

Our repertoire spans all music made for choir; from sacred music to world music and music from student culture. The choir has been part several larger projects, besides our own concerts and recordings.

Kongl. Teknologkören is an active choir both musically and socially. In the choir you will find both a joy of singing as well as friends for life! We do lots of fun things during the year, including:

Conductor

Every other summer (sometimes more often!) we go on a longer trip to meet other choirs or compete at international choir competitions. The last trips were:

Teknologkören flew to Lisbon during the summer heat, and had concerts with two local choirs: Nova Era Vocal Ensemble and Coro da Universidade de Lisboa.
Edinburgh, Scotland, 2019
Amongst the beautiful hills of Scotland, we met up with another choir, had a concert in St Giles's Cathedral, played the bagpipes, danced traditional Scottish dances, and saw the Aberdeen Highland Games.

We were able to stay for a short time in Vienna before continuing to Ljubljana where we performed in the beautiful S:t Nicolas' Cathedral.
