2018 Tour - Germany and Czech Republic
In May 2018, Nordic Choir embarked on a two week performance tour of Germany and the Czech Republic. Musicians immersed themselves in local cuisine, music, and history, while following a route similar to Nordic Choir's first international tour to Norway and East and West Germany fifty years earlier.
View the tour program and itinerary attached here for more information about the 2018 Nordic Choir international tour. Watch the video “To This Day,” created by Luther College and Nordic Choir alumna Aiden Spencer in commemoration of Nordic’s first international tour.
As part of a three-year student/faculty collaborative project, Aidan Spencer '18 and Jacqueline Wilkie, Luther professor of history, created a commemorative documentary of Luther College's first international music tour by a choir. Nordic Choir's six-week tour in the summer of 1967 included performances in Norway and East and West Germany. We hope you enjoy this special documentary!
