VLADA Vlog No. 9: Gospel Festival in Stockholm

The other week I was supporting the Swiss Gospel Choir at the 20th International Gospel Festival in Stockholm. It was an intense, but very exciting week, full of rehearsals, performances, and occasional visits to Stockholm’s beautiful old town. We had performances as the Swiss Gospel Choir, but were also part of the Mass Choir. Singing gospel songs with 1500 other singers was quite an experience! And there’s something about Black Gospel music that touches my heart and soul, time and time again. Black Gospel attracted me from my early youth onwards, I sang in and was the musical director of a gospel choir for over 10 years. I guess it’s not surprising that you can hear some gospel elements in my music as well )
