A major contributor to this article appears to have a close connection with its subject. (March 2024) |
The Hojlund Family choir consists of 50-60 members of the Hojlund family.
The name of the choir refers to the fact that everyone has the same ancestry, namely the group of music-loving siblings who grew up on Julielund in Alligåbro in Jutland, Denmark. It is the first time in Denmark's history that a single family takes on such great musical challenges. There were 13 in total (the picture shows 9 of them). The Højlund choir is made up of three generations, cousins, aunts, uncles, children and grandchildren, as well as spouses and partners, who are in various ways related to the 13 siblings, with an age spread from 17 to 71 years. This helps to give the musical expression a base and a special sound, as does the fact that the average age is low, because the younger generation is also involved. There are both seasoned choir singers and young people without choir experience, venturing into singing in a choir, and experiencing the world through the unfathomable insight of music.
Since 1845, the Højlund family has resided at the family farm Julielund, where many still meet every summer at a family camp. But the song and the music can be traced even further back. Among other things, to an ancestor, Thomine, who met Niels Finsen at a summer party in Ringkøbing and thus brought the family together with a Nobel Prize winner. About the child who came out of it, it is said in the family records that she had a good singing voice.
It all began in 1992, when several musical family members came together to create a common musical experience on a high artistic level. It was a performance of Handel's Messiah in Silkeborg Church, and since then the choir has performed a major choral work. every two years. We have performed Bach's St. John’s Passion, Mozart's Requiem, Brahm's Requiem, Fauré's Requiem, Kullberg and Johansen's Eversmiling Liberty - all concerts with a professional orchestra, and often with soloists from the family. The concerts have been performed throughout the country, in Copenhagen, Aalborg, Randers, Ebeltoft, Silkeborg, Aarhus and others. In March 2024 the choir performed Fauré’s Requiem and anthems by Mendelssohn.
As family members live scattered around Denmark, and abroad, the choir typically meets for only one or two rehearsal weekends, in addition to the weekend when the concert will take place.
Soloists from the family have included:
