A HISTORICAL FIRST OF AUSS
Swedish Women's Chorus of Seattle on Sweden Tour
At the National Convention in Bridge'
port, 1978, the Swedish Women's Chorus
of Seattle was voted in as a full fledged
member of the American Uiv'on of
Swedish Singers, the first ladies chorus
so accredited. That was a first in itself
in the annals of AUSS.
This ambitious chorus set as its goal a
concert tour of Sweden, with one con'
cert given in Iceland. This has become a
reality in 1980.
On Sunday, June 1, the Swedish
Women's Chorus sang of midsummer
flowers, "Midsommar blomstcr," and the
scent of roses, "I rcsens doft," as they
presented their 29th annual concert at
the Swedish Club in Seattle, with Dr.
Edward Palmason, tenor, guest soloist.
The concert was a preview of the
chorus' singing tour of Iceland and Swe-den,
as many of the songs were the same
ones sung in nine different concerts dur-ing
the tour. The theme of the tour will
be "Hiilsningar fran Svensk-Amcrika,"
and the chorus will represent the Amer-ican
Union of Swedish Singers as well as
Seattle.
