Get into the pre-Christmas spirit while listening to the most famous songs from The Christmas Gospel repertoire. The selected voices of Christmas Gospel present them with unmatched intensity and quality.
The Early Years
The roots of black gospel and spirituals date back to the early 18th century. Back then, African slaves developed their first English hymns in the foreign land of America. At that time, they still held their inherent moral beliefs and religious convictions.
The Ensemble's Story
For almost twenty years, we have traveled across the USA to proclaim the good news in churches and theaters. During this time, I had the privilege of experiencing some of the best gospel singers America has to offer. Wherever my travels took me, I always kept my ears open.
It was then in my own community in Harlem that the dream was born to bring together some of the best American gospel singers as a group, so they could share their spiritual fire with brothers and sisters in Europe. Thanks to the help of our producers and organizers, we can now live this dream.
Whenever the singers of the ensemble "The Christmas Gospel" raise their crystal-clear voices to the highest registers at the beginning and end of the concert, a shiver regularly runs through the audience. That is the spirit of gospel - a commonly heard opinion of the performance by "The Christmas Gospel."
But the gospel classics such as "Oh Happy Day," Amazing Grace, and "When the Saint" are naturally part of the ensemble's repertoire, which impresses mainly through the balance of female and male voices.
Gospel - classical and modern soul ballads - emotion and temperament come together here to create a fascinating experience. The different experiences that The Christmas Gospel gathered on stage, as well as their well-known knack for selecting their singers, lead us to expect sold-out churches and concert halls during the upcoming The Christmas Gospel tour in Germany and Austria after over 500 concerts from 2018 to 2023.
It is a concert - but the atmosphere of the famous services of Black Churches makes the audience on the big Austria tour in 2023 become a part of the "community." It is the cheerful contemplativeness that makes these Christmas Gospel concerts an extraordinary event.
