| The Winter Week 2002-2003 |
| The New Years Week of this
year with Music Weeks in Sweden offered a record cold in the
middle of the winter white lanscape of Dalecarlia. In spite
of the cold outside the rehearsals, the soirées and night
cafés kept the 50 singers warm and alert most of the
time. An extra matter of joy was the great number of new singers
that took part in an arrangement by Music Weeks in Sweden. Welcome
back! |
