Sokkelund Sangkor is a Danish chamber choir founded in 1984 by conductor Morten Schuldt-Jensen, who continues to lead the ensemble. Since its inception the choir has held a firm place among Denmark's top choral ensembles, performing a wide repertoire - from Baroque oratorio to jazz-inflected a cappella - at churches and festivals in Denmark and abroad. Its prizes include first place in the European Broadcasting Union's International Chamber Choir Contest (1986), the Holmboe Prize (2001) and the Copenhagen County Cultural Award (1993). The choir has recorded for Dacapo Records and appeared in numerous radio and television broadcasts.
