Concert Description -
“Spirit Journey” takes the audience on a journey of strength, persecution, tribulation, and finally celebration of the African-American people. The journey begins in Africa with singers, dancers, and drummers. From Africa the journey takes us to a strange land where the life of the African people has changed dramatically and confusion and misery drape their world. The drum weaves the voice of the people throughout the show and beautiful words and harmonies bring the listeners through each new era. African songs, spirituals, freedom songs, civil rights songs, jazz, and finally gospel songs are all woven throughout this beautiful journey of hope and strength. Take a journey with the choir…”Spirit Journey.”
