THE SARAH SHEPPARD ENSEMBLE
The Sarah Sheppard Ensemble is one of the three groups belonging to the Sarah
Sheppard Spirituals Association. The others are the Sarah Sheppard Choir
and the Choral Laboratory. The group is made up of solo singers, instrumentalists
and a Gospel choir, and principally performs European and North American
music.
Their repertoire consists of spirituals and gospels, protestant chorals,
Christmas carols and music by American, British and Anglo-Saxon composers.
They are performed with solo voices, choir, piano or organ, rhythmic section
(double bass and drums) and choreography.
GOSPEL CHOIR - CHOREOGRAPHY
According to the Afro-American Gospel choir tradition, the music of the Sarah
Sheppard Ensemble is always accompanied by rhythmic swaying and movement
depending on the location (church, theatre, open-air).
