In the december last year I was honoured by receiving the Lussestipendium (Lucia Schoolarship) from Wermländska Sällskapet i Stockholm (The Wermlandian Society in Stockholm, my native county in Sweden).
I received it from the hand of Chairman Nils-Gunnar Billinger at Grand Hotel in the middle of december last year.
Yesterday I was invited to their Vesper Service at Storkyrkan in Stockholm where I talked about my upbringing in Värmland, my musical education and presented my orchestra piece Kanoper.
