To have a lead singer with backing vocals and harmonies.
I am looking for the singing to be very impactful.
Do you know a gospel choir available to record this.
Regards

Hi Dee, Thank you for your enquiry via 10 Remarkable Black Gospel Choirs in Holland. Your song is wonderful, amazing and a great homage to George Floyd. Perhaps a UK Based Gospel Choir could help you. What about the London Community Gospel Choir https://lcgc.org.uk/? I’ve also sent you some other great choirs via your e-mail address. Good luck!

Just stumbled on this site and kudos to you for bringing to light Gospel music in the Netherlands. However, you’ve made a massive omission of a lady who is an institution in Black gospel music in this country, that actually trained quite a few of the people on this list ,
singers and musicians . Ms. Edith Casteleyn.
is choir director at the moment of the Alive Gospel choir , Life Line Gospel Choir , Friendship Gospel Choir and the Rainbow Gospel singers ! Has worked with Richard Smallwood, John Pee kee et.c carried out workshops all over the country and outside even in the US. The ONLY ‘white’ choir director at the Nashville African American Music Museum …..
Thank you, Martin Abu for taking the time to leave a comment. Especially, drawing my attention to one of the world’s best ‘White, Black American Gospel Choir Directors – Ms. Edith Casteleyn. I know of her great work and contribution to the Dutch Gospel Music World. She has orchestrated many worship events and trained many gospel singers on this list of Black Gospel Choirs. I agree totally with you, she is a force to be reckoned with. Have a great day.
