Five Music-making Angels, Bronze sculpture group in Gävle, Sweden

This bronze sculpture group features five angel boys positioned on tall granite pillars, each playing a different wind instrument. The figures are arranged in coordinated formation to create a unified musical composition.

Swedish sculptor Carl Milles created this work between 1949 and 1950, during a period of intense artistic production. It was made when the artist was deeply engaged with angel themes across multiple projects.

In Gävle the group is commonly called "Fem musicerande genier" or simply "Milles änglar"; the city's copy was bought by the GDJ fund, the Gefle-Dala Järnvägs donation fund of 1945. The five boy angels play different wind instruments. In 2005 the Swedish post issued four stamps with Carl Milles's angel motifs.

In Gävle the group stands in Stadsträdgården, opposite Gävle Konserthus, on tall columns that lift the figures above eye level, so step back across the lawn to see all five at once. The Lidingö version is on the lower terrace of Millesgården's sculpture park.
