Vocal Line, Denmark


Vocal Line是由三十二位歌手組成的當代人聲無伴奏合唱團,約翰森擔任指揮。
Vocal Line 於一九九一年在丹麥阿爾路斯成立,期許在當代人聲無伴奏團體中引領風騷,達到國際水平層次。多年來,我們積極挑戰人聲無伴奏演唱的極限,持續增進我們的藝術表現,致力演出創新作品與新編曲。儘管相當程度地受到丹麥合唱傳統的影響,但我們仍發展出一種獨特的個人風格與聲音,揉合了流行音樂、搖滾、爵士樂、世界音樂與古典、前衛音樂等元素。
在全新的千禧年際,當代人聲無伴奏團體大行其道之際,Vocal line正可謂無與倫比!
如今,Vocal Line在丹麥以及全歐洲的合唱社群中,享有一定聲譽,除了曾獲多項國際重要獎項,它已跨越國界藩籬,為當代合唱團與指揮豎立一種典範。身為「最出色的歐洲合唱團」之一,Vocal Line 受邀於二○○五年前往日本京都參加「第七屆世界合唱音樂節」,並於今年五月在家鄉阿爾路斯舉行兩場演出,名為「起飛吧!2005年台灣—日本行」。

Vocal Line is a modern a cappella choir boasting 32 singers, directed by Jens Johansen.
The choir was formed in 1991 inAarhus, Denmark and our goal is to be trendsetters in the development of contemporary a cappella music on a national as well as an international level. Over the years, we have continuously sought to expand the limits of a cappella singing, and we aim to keep improving our art.

We concentrate almost exclusively on new compositions and new arrangements. Although deeply rooted in the Danish choir tradition, we have developed a personal style and sound, which can be characterized as a mixture of pop, rock, jazz, world, and classical avantgarde.
With this highly original take on modern a cappella as it is presented at the beginning of the new millennium, it is safe to say that nobody sounds quite like Vocal Line!
Vocal Line is known throughout the Danish and European choir community, has won a number of international awards and prizes, and stands as a role model for choirs and conductors across the country and internationally. As one of the “foremost choirs of Europe” Vocal Line has recently received an invitation for the 7th World Choral Symposium in Kyoto, Japan in 2005. Vocal Line has decided to give two performances "Take-off: Taiwan-Japan Tour 2005" in May in our hometown of Aarhus.
