Mogens Dahl

Mogens Dahl is the founder and conductor of Mogens Dahl Chamber Choir, which he has developed into one of Scandinavia’s leading vocal ensembles. He trained at the Department of Musicology at Aarhus University and the Royal Danish Academy of Music, furthering his studies with renowned figures including Eric Ericson and Jorma Panula. Dahl has also held teaching positions at the Royal Academy of Music in Aarhus and Aalborg University. From 1991 to 2003, he served as chorus master at the Danish National Opera.

A large number of Mogens Dahl’s projects are based on newly composed works dedicated to him and the Chamber Choir by leading Scandinavian composers. His visionary work with Nordic vocal music has led to remarkable collaborations with composers and musicians across traditional genre boundaries. For several years, Mogens Dahl has conducted the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment in connection with the Chamber Choir’s annual Messiah concerts in Holmens Church, Copenhagen.
