The Harlem Gospel Singers

The Harlem Gospell Singers demonstrate the fundamental importance of gospel for American music culture. From its beginnings in the 18th century to the present day, spirituals and gospel have influenced almost all forms of popular music: blues, soul, R’n’B, jazz, rock, even hip hop and country. At the same time, these different styles have found their way into gospel music.

With its unmistakable sound, the brilliant gospel phenomenon has conquered the metropolises of the United States and Europe. To date, more than 2.5 million people have enthusiastically celebrated the annual R’n’B, jazz and pop-inspired shows by the world’s most important gospel formation.
