ArtsMidwest.org’s June Spotlight is last January’s performance of the Harlem Gospel Choir’s March performance at the Dennos Museum Center’s Milliken Auditorium.
Arts Midwest awarded the Dennos a grant that was used to support the performance and helped make the workshop between the Harlem Gospel Choir and NMC Choir possible.
The sold-out concert provided what Dennos Museum Center Executive Director Gene Jenneman described as a “truly unique experience for our students.”

A choir made up of member of the NMC Grand Traverse Chorale and the NMC Chamber Singers, about 45, participated in a workshop with the Harlem Gospel Choir. During the workshop, the HGC talked to about their history, their approach, and their mission. We talked about musical singing styles – specifically gospel music. They taught us the number we performed with them,“O Happy Day,” in about 20 minutes. It was a great experience for the choirs!
