The sensational skills of the girls of the Malmöflickorna

A spectacular display by the Malmöflickorna ensemble, which included the music of Simon & Garfunkel and (of course) Abba, marked the brilliant Opening Ceremony of the 47th European Championships at the Malmö Opera Music Theatre. It was choreographed along with the presentation of the participating Countries and their flags.
Compared in excellent style by Anna Maria Torlontano and Christer Cedergren there were speeches of welcome by the mayor of Malmö, Kjell-Arne Landgren, Swedish Bridge Federation President Mats Qviberg, and EBL President Gianarrigo Rona, who returned to the stage at the conclusion of the performance to formally declarer the Championships open. Now it is down to business for the Open and Women’s teams and those taking part in the Festival.
