Venue Details

Syng Selected is a modern a cappella choir consisting of 31 of Denmark’s most talented young choir singers between the ages of 18-30 years. Syng Selected was founded by the Danish Youth Choral Association SYNG in 2014, and since then, it has become an established part of the evolving Danish vocal music scene. 

In recent years, the focus has been on writing, arranging, and producing original music for and with the choir, as well as maintaining a strong narrative in concerts. “We try to utilise as many nuances of the human voice as possible in order to connect to the audience in the most direct way - through music, through emotions,” says Line Groth Riis. 

Syng Selected performs with amplification and brings a natural Nordic sound carried by the energy of the young singers. The concerts revolve around the theme of Courage - courage to trust yourself, courage to fall and get back up, courage to grow up, and to be fragile and ask for help. “It’s a powerful theme, especially when it comes from courageous young people - actually, I can sometimes get overwhelmed by the impact in rehearsals and on stage, which in return reminds me to stay courageous in my own life,” Morten Vinther adds. 

In addition to performing on several prominent stages in Denmark, the choir has toured in Sweden, Germany, Israel, the US, and Turkey. The choir received international recognition in 2020 when they won the ACA Idol in New York, and the general acknowledgement of the choir has also led to performances with the Danish singer Stine Bramsen, Latvian Voices, Israeli choir Vocalosity, and the Swedish vocal group The Real Group, to name a few. The choir is a project choir and changes conductor(s) every three years. Currently, Syng Selected is conducted by Line Groth Riis and Morten Vinther; Line is best known from her years in Danish XL choir Vocal Line and vocal group Postyr, and Morten for his decade in the Swedish vocal group The Real Group.
