The event is here to end the year on high notes from exceptional singers
The Roma Gospel Festival is held annually at the Auditorium Parco della Musica, from December 23 to December 31. The festival features the best American choirs and gospel groups and is the largest of its kind in Europe. With such a venue, the goal to involve all listeners and have them participate in the shows is easily achievable. So don’t hesitate to wave, sing along, or simply clap with everyone else for a unique and encompassing experience.
The Florida Inspirational Singers mark the opening of the event on December 23, bringing a uniquely gospel repertoire, where the deep soul of the southern US tradition blends with the more modern, spiritual, sounds of the genre.
On Christmas Day there will be a double performance by the Harlem Gospel Choir, the most famous and long-lived US gospel choir, which has been performing since 1986 to raise funds for charity.
On December 26, the very young The Brooklyn Gospel Harmonettes, led by front leader Jamia Jean Pierre, will land in Italy for the first time, ready to tell their Afro-American story through the purest Gospel tradition.
This is followed by three days of performances (27-28-29 December) by the Brent Jones Gospel Choir. Brent Jones is a producer, musician and choirmaster, who, with his urban group Brent Jones & T.P. Mobb laid the foundation for contemporary gospel music.
The festival ends on December 30 and 31 with Nate Martin & Sign (Singing In God’s Name), the Chicago duo with a robust sound and an example of Gospel Soul made in the USA.
This is an event that delivers to its audience the beauty, splendour, and depth of classical and contemporary Gospel music.
