Mica Paris has music to lift the spirit and raise the roof as she curates the biggest and best gospel choirs from this hugely influential genre.
In this episode Mica explores the role of the choir in making this music so powerful and uplifting. From the raw power and energy of Reverend James Cleveland to the showmanship of Donald Lawrence and Kirk Franklin, Mica has some of the finest choir leaders and choirs of modern gospel. Plus she takes a tour of the fourtets and sextets of southern gospel and brings us right up to date with Kanye West's Sunday Service Choir.
One of the UK's brightest contemporary choirs, the House Gospel Choir, bring together dance music and gospel to create a spiritual sound for the dancefloor. Mica has an exclusive session track from our Maida Vale studios recorded especially for us last year.
Whatever you believe, the energy and power of these choirs can't fail to help the soul sing and get you on your feet.
