Welcome Sofia
Hello Sofia I’m very happy that you’are returned: my great desire to revise you has been fulfilled so I hope to meet you as sson as possible. “It is through the idealism of youth that man catches sight of truth, and in that idealism he possesses a wealth which he must never exchange for anything else.”Albert Schweitezer. Singing is the spirituality of idealism, an expression of our inner dimension. In these times is difficult to be idealists, even singing is not difficult when you have more strength and courage to live life fully. Sofia you are a singer teacher, your is a position of strength and dynamism of life in one of its highest expressions: a part of the fluid of the LIFE of all the umanity. You’re a very wonderful woman with the charme of the simple girl. Hoping that this is for you a period of professional and human growth I wish you a pleasant stay in Gorizia that every year you learn to know better. Bye

Singing Apes
I saw you perform last year in competition in Tallinn. Fantastic work! The piece by Jan Sandstrom–The Singing Apes of Khao Yai–who publishes that? I would love to get my hands on a copy of the music. Thank you!

8 March 2008-IWD-
Hello dear Sofia, My best wishes for you in this day in which in all the world it remembers the establishment of the day that commemorates the long, hard and tiring work done by women to obtain recognition of their equal rights and dignity with the men which in practical means have the same job opportunities. Perhaps without this commitment of women and men of good will who have incurred, would probably not think of you, in your current job of director of Choirs loved and appreciated in Sweden and other Countries. I hope that one day you Sofia will be composing music and lyrics of a new song in which all women have a unique sentiment of good for herselves and men without hate and passion for social struggle. I ideally send a bouquet of yellow mimosas as a sign of appreciation and gratitude for your presence in my City, Gorizia, and for the meeting, although short, I was able to have with you. Hoping to see you again bye and kisses. A blond man.

Julkonserten
Helt fantastiskt! Vilken dynamik! Vilken dynamit! Vilket tonomfång och shit vad mäktiga små sekundrar
Alla vi som var där i afton var helt lyriska efteråt! Att sitta där i mitten precis när det händer och njuta till efterklangen i Domkyrkan! Majestätiskt! Världsklass! Fem stjärnor till nuet. Att “Jul, jul, strålande jul” är min favvojullåt gör ju inte saken sämre heller

Superbt
Tack för en helt fantastisk konsert i Näs Ladugård. Allra mest gillade jag styckena av den baltiske kompositören. Ni annonserade hans besök i Lund senare i höst. Är det den konserten som kommer att hållas i Universitetsaulan i oktober? Varmt tack sänder Margareta med vänner som också var där

Amazing Performances
I competed in Gorizia with The University of Akron choirs and may I just say that it was an honor to have been beaten by you
I enjoyed your performances greatly and the first song you sang in the “Folk” category is STILL STUCK IN MY HEAD!! It was a true honor to compete with a group as impressive as yours!
[Reply]

Congratulation and a request
At first I can only say the same like Anna Molnár. I am fascinated by the high quality and the magnificent homogeneity of your singing. It’s great! You were really the best in this competition. And here’s my request. I’m looking for the notes of Björn Isfält already for a long time. You sang this music in Gorizia at sunday. Can you send me the notes or tell me, how can I get them? Thank you very much.

Schubert
In your webpage titled ‘Romance’ you state that your voyage ends with Schubert in Germany. Which Schubert? Or do you mean Johann Sebastian Schubert in Austria? Thanks, anyway, for some splendid singing in your three releases. I, too, would sing like an angel with a conductor like yours! With kind regards, Ole Baekgaard

Svanholm
Hej Sofia och alla sångare, Har skaffat en ny dator och lyckas nu komma in på er hemsida. Proffsig, liksom också ert framtädande i Helsingborg. Två saker: 1. Jag heter sedan 1/1 2004 Eva Svanholm Bohlin 2. Set Svanholm föddes 2 september 1904 och skulle alltså fyllt 100 i år om han levat. Något att markera? Ni och numera ockå jag hjälper ju till att hålla hans namn levande. Många kramar till alla

U.S. tour?
I just learned of your second CD, “Romance,” which I hope to acquire soon. I’ve listened to and enjoyed enormously the first CD almost every week during the past year or so! When do you plan to tour in the United States?

Konsert
Synd att jag missade er snokonsert men det gick tyvarr inte att boka om min afrikaresa. Jag har hort att det var en valdigt bra konsert…. Jag har med svanholmskivan hit och afrikanerna gillar den.
[Reply]
Vilket underbart sound!
Traumlicht låter underbart drömskt, t o m bättre än OD-kören. Var hittar man såna underbara tenorer och låga basar?! kommunala musikskoleelever månne? Keep up the good work, det kan bara bli bättre…
[Reply]
Congratulations!
I hope that your new album is as good as previous. I\’m about to order it. It\’s a pleasure listening to your music.
[Reply]
skivan!
Kära sångare, blir stolt över vårt arbete med Romance nu när jag äntligen fått den överlämnad av en vänlig Emil J härom sist. Mitt tenorpressande i svenska-kyrkans kör i Paris blev genast än mer oinspirerat. Jag läser om era planer och längtar.. hagegården låter inte illa! Lycka till så syns vi till nästa termin! Johannes
[Reply]
F-n va gött!!!
Lite ryggdunk åt alla SvS:are. En riktigt, RIKTIGT go skiva. Kalle Bjurström borde få medalj för sin solosång liksom Stefan. Skulle också vilja ge en stor eloge till Olof, Sofia, Lasson och alla andra som jobbat hårt för att få skivan färdig. Jag är så stolt över att få vara en del i denna eminenta kör.
[Reply]
Ni är bäst!!
Grattis till era enorma utmärkelser i Polen. Gött… Hoppas alla har en bra sommar. MVH
