No Spring or Christmas performances in 2020. A skeleton chorus of 16 produced a “not-quite good” virtual recording of Nu är det Jul igen! (Now, it’s Christmas again!) as our substitution for our 2020 Julmiddag Concert. The virtual recording was tremendously difficult to pull off within the parameters of Covid restrictions and internet discrepancies.
