How would you like to attend a school where your classmates are your choir? Here at Sollentuna Musikklasser, music isn’t just a subject – it’s the very heart of the school. Founded in 1994, Sollentuna Musikklasser, often shortened to SMK, is a unique public school. Students in grades 4 through 9 don’t just learn about music, they live it. Imagine starting your day, not with a regular class, but with the harmonious blend of voices in choir practice. That’s the SMK difference! Each class forms its own choir, exploring a rich tapestry of musical styles and difficulties. From the sacred echoes of traditional Swedish choral music to the vibrancy of contemporary pieces, their repertoire knows no bounds. Students perform several concerts each year. These aren’t just your average school concerts. They take their melodies beyond the school walls, filling the hallowed halls of churches in and around Sollentuna, captivating audiences in concert halls across Stockholm and beyond. The school prides itself on nurturing not just musical talents, but also a love for learning in its entirety. And it seems to be working: in 2011, SMK’s graduating class achieved the highest average grades in all of Sweden’s public schools. The SMK experience is an ode to the power of music in education, a testament to the magic that happens when learning and melody intertwine.
