Stockholms Filharmoniska Kör

Swedish Philharmonic Choir

Choir from Stockholm, Sweden that was built to support the Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra under the same patronage. Underwent a few name changes during the course of its existence: 1907-1916 SSUH-kören (no releases known from this time); 1916-1972 Musikaliska Sällskapet; 1972-1980 Stockholms Filharmoniska Kör/Musikaliska Sällskapet; 1980-1991 Stockholms Filharmoniska Kör; 1991-2012 Kungliga Filharmoniska Kören. Silent since 2000, it disbanded properly in 2012, but a standalone alumni society remains, occasionally participating in concerts and releasing material under the name Musikaliska Sällskapets Kammarkör.
