Ballerup's large rhythmic choir Sweet & Swing celebrates its 50th anniversary with a concert built around its swinging repertoire and multi-voiced arrangements of well-loved songs by Danish and international singer-songwriters. The choir's 43 singers, across four voice groups, are led by conductor Anja Hansen and pianist Mikkel Illum Svendsen.
For the jubilee, the choir has invited the singer Signe Juhl Jensen as soloist. She teaches singing at Syddansk Musikkonservatorium and performs with her own quartet, and has appeared with Aarhus Jazzorchestra, DR Bigband and several symphony orchestras. The evening also brings back bassist Dan Rasmussen and percussionist Mikkel Schnettler, who have just returned from a engagement at Malmö Opera.
