Choir

Live and study singing in Denmark · Højskolen Mors

The joy of singing, for everyone, no experience needed

Choir is a shared subject at Højskolen Mors, a creative residential school on the island of Mors in Denmark (in Danish, a højskole), where community, the joy of singing and musical development are at the centre. You do not need to read music or to have sung before. The most important thing is that you want to sing together with others. We sing a varied repertoire from contemporary and classical works to folk songs, often in several parts. The teaching is in English. The choir meets on Tuesday evenings, and your teacher is Gry Boller Jespersen.

Your teacher in Choir

Gry Boller Jespersen

Gry holds a master's degree in musicology from Aarhus University, with a focus on both band leading and music anthropology. Ever since she was very young she has been curious about the world of music: both what we play together and how music shapes us, affects us and creates community.

She grew up in the Danish free schools and knows the folk high school songbook inside out. At Højskolen Mors she teaches Music, Choir, Vocal Training, World Music & Kucheza, Party Band and Music Theory.
