Agnus Dei (2009)

Ave Maria (2014)

In October 2015, Johannebergskyrkan in Göteborg, Sweden, celebrated its 75th anniversary highlighted by a number of concerts. For the final one, on October 18, the Church of Sweden and the Congregation of Johanneberg, commissioned a new piece by composer Mikael Carlsson. "Te Deum", written for choir and orchestra, sets the old christian hymn (also known as "A Song of the Church") to suggestive and dramatic music with the pitches of the church's three tower bells as it foundation. The piece also incorporates a theme by Hilding Hallnäs (Johannebergskyrkan's first organist and a fine and prolific composer in his own right) to acknowledge the great musical heritage of the church. 

Music Composed by Mikael Carlsson
Conducted by Jan K. Delemark
Johannebergs Oratoriekör
Camerata Gothia
Musicians from GöteborgsOperan
