Personal presentation:
I was born in 1959. I live in Norrköping, Sweden. By occupation, I work with digital archives at the National Archives in Sweden. Music has been a hobby for most of my life; I seriously started making choral arrangements in spring 2000 (and have not been able to stop since then :-). For a longer presentation, see CPDL.

My musical background:

In the municipal music school, I studied piano, recorder, and violin (somewhat). I have kept playing the piano, and taught myself to play the guitar (mostly chord playing as accompanient to song, but also some "finger play").

When I was around 25 years old, I started to take singing lessons, and did that for approximately seven years (with frequent breaks for a year or a half each). About the same time, I started to sing in a women's choir for students. I have sung in women's and mixed choirs since then (also here with some breaks), both in church choirs and secular choirs.

I was earlier a graduate student in the cross-area between databases and music and am still interested in computer-represented music.

Concerning my knowledge in arranging choral music: I am mostly an auto-didact (my formal education is short: half a semester of basic music theory at the university). I try to transform the practical knowledge I get as a choral singer to arrangements that are (hopefully!) fun to sing.

Musical arrangements for choir

Here are my choral arrangements for (mostly) four voices, scores for these in PDF format, and simple MIDI renderings.
You can also reach them from The Choral Public Domain Library.
(If you need a PDF reader, you can download it from www.adobe.com.)

All arrangements (and translations) are the property of Eva Toller, by copyright. You are welcome to use them
(for non-profit purposes!) if you give comments (to eva.toller[@]swipnet.se) about them afterwards
(what you liked & disliked about them, and any errors you have detected - including unintended copyright infringements).

This page has finally become too big to present all the choral information by itself. Thus, music for the different choir types are now shown in different pages (to get there, click on the links either directly above or directly below this text).

The arrangements are divided into four tables (and four pages):

Mixed choir (you can also load all at once from zip files: everything at once
or piecemal: scores with titles A , titles B - C , titles D - E , titles F - H , titles I - J , titles K - L , titles M - N , titles O - R , titles SA-SO , titles ST-SW , titles T - U , titles V - Z and the rest (midis, piano reductions, and translations): titles A , titles B , titles C - E , titles F - K , titles F - K , titles L - M , titles N - R , titles SA-SP , titles ST-SW , titles T - Z )
Women's choir (zip files: everything at once
or piecemal: scores with titles A , titles B - D , titles E - K , titles L - M , titles N - R , titles S , titles T - Z and the rest: titles A - D , titles E - K , titles L - R , titles S - Z )
Men's choir (zip files: everything at once
or piecemal: scores with titles A - C , titles D - F , titles G - K , titles L - N , titles O - S , titles T - V , titles W - Z and the rest: titles A - F , titles G - K , titles L - S , titles T - Z )
Not public (arrangements that cannot be downloaded). Alice Tegnér is now in Public Domain!

How to use this site (short tutorial)

If you want to make voluntary payments
to some charity,
or to STIM, the Swedish Performing Rights Society
(to help me cover the costs of maintaining this web site).
Observe that payments to STIM can only be made for the public domain arrangements.
Information about STIM in English: here.

Current projects (apart from making new arrangements):

Inserting descriptions of each piece (music and/or lyrics)
Converting all pieces to Finale (Allegro)
Correct MIDI files (with respect to channels)
Selling services; for example, making custom-made arrangements for a specfic choir
(see Eva Toller's Choir Music, Products and Services)
Making a real database for advanced searches (for example, on voice ranges)
Finding/making "rough" English translation of all German lyrics
Saving all pieces as MusicXML
