Introduction

The London Community Gospel Choir have performed across the world bringing their up-tempo gospel flair, swing-beat, R ‘n’ B, traditional and soulful arrangements to delighted audiences everywhere.

The richness depth and sheer strength of their voices outstanding says ‘the Oxford Playhouse’.

"It is almost impossible not to like The London Community Gospel Choir. Everything looks and sounds good: their positivity is contagious." says John L Walters - The Guardian

The music and voices intertwined seamlessly indicates hours of planning and practice, says ‘The Financial Gazette, South Africa’, now its time to join them
In 1982 a dream and a vision came alive. Revd. Bazil Meade, with the help of Lawrence Johnson, Delroy Powell and John Francis, made a mark in history pioneering the first concert gospel choir in Britain – the London Community Gospel Choir (LCGC)
Trying to fit LCGC into a neat slot is virtually impossible. They are adaptable, flexible and create dynamic melodies with rich harmonies whether they are performing as an octet or a 30-strong choir. LCGC is known for their funky gospel flair, swing-beat, R'n'B, traditional and soulful arrangements, with invigorating choreography and vocal gymnastics.
Its members perform just about anywhere: private corporate functions, after-show parties, conferences, schools, cabaret functions, clubs, weddings, christenings, funerals, prisons, churches, open-air festivals, theatres and concert halls.
Controversial, Professional, Energetic, Inspiring and Spirit-filled! Whatever adjective you choose to describe the sound and vision of the London Community Gospel Choir, ‘there ain’t no stopping them now'. They will continue to go where angels fear to tread.

Fancy yourself as a soul sister? Sing it loud, sing it proud with the world famous London Community Gospel Choir.
This is your chance to learn some of the techniques used by these incredible singers before joining in a full rehearsal for a rendition of the classic, ‘Oh Happy Day’. You can’t listen to The London Community Gospel Choir without moving or smiling says The Guardian – now you can find out why.
