Carina Einarson

Musical Director | London Nordic Choir
United Kingdom

Conductor, composer and professional musician Carina Einarson studied music at the Royal Academy of Music in Stockholm with legendary Professor Eric Ericson, among others. Her technical acumen and creative versatility brought her to London, where she has performed on BBC3 Radio, led several evensongs in St. Paul's Cathedral and worked as Musical Director at the Swedish Church. Carina has conducted at illustrious venues such as St. John’s Smith Square, Wigmore Hall, York Minster and the Old Bailey.  

In 2016, she founded the London Nordic Choir, an independent chamber choir particularly noted for vibrant performances of a cappella repertoire. With recent concerts in St. James’s Piccadilly, Hexham Abbey and other prominent venues, the choir is celebrated for its lyrical interpretations and dynamic tone. As Carina explains, Vowels express our emotions. There is an inherent clarity in the Nordic languages and an obsession with the color of each vowel and getting close to the text. The result is often a warm lyrical sound that’s delicate and sensitive.”
