Swedish choir SIST was founded in the spring of 2009 under the leadership of musicology student Kateřina Rašík in the course "Swedish in songs" at the Faculty of Arts of Masaryk University.
Members are primarily students who have completed at least one semester of Swedish. The choir is occasionally accompanied by keyboards, flute, violin, clarinet or other instruments. The choir also performed repeatedly at IKEA and Avion department store events, in addition to participating in the traditional celebration of Saint Lucy's Day organized by the Nordic Society, in a chamber version at the Swedish Embassy in Prague, and also performed at Midsommarfest (summer solstice celebration) in Brno.
