Soweto Gospel Choir

Soweto Gospel Choir delivered a great performance, I truly was bless by this Choir and impress by the men dance movements.

I've seen so many ... from Marley to Midler ... from Taj Mahal and John Hiatt to Ladysmith and Bob Dylan. Not one was more enjoyable than Soweto Gospel Choir. SGC delivered goose bumps and tears with angelic voices, remarkable choreography and a stage full of joy. The performance was so far beyond expectations we were simply blown away. And SGC seemed to enjoy being on stage as much as we enjoyed watching them.

An unforgettable performance showing the beauty and passion of South African people and music!

Very moving and powerful performance by the worlds greatest choir. Amazing dancing with incredible drumming along with the fantastic vocals makes it a must see concert.

Soweto Gospel Choir touches the heart in a very intimate way while bringing energy that is awe inspiring. Got a chance to meet the members and felt that their hearts are in touch with their spirit. As I looked at each individual I saw that they were more than entertaining, they were in tune with the message that they were bringing.

Soweto Gospel Choir rocked us right out of our seats. Their voices are huge and add to that the wonderful movements and the bright colors of their African dress and you are ready for a great show. the entire audience was on their feet for the last few numbers. You really don't want to miss this show if it comes your way again.

From the moment we walked into The Lincoln Theatre we were struck by the beauty and detail of this venue. What incredible renovations. Columbus should be very pleased that there is a venue so culturally stimulating. THEN, the Soweto Gospel Choir takes the stage, and I do mean envelopes the performance space with color, rhythm, harmonies, Spirit, and yet, intimacy that could probably only captured at the Lincoln. They shared their spirits, souls, and awing songs for 90 minutes with an intermission and costume change of 20 minutes. A friend and I attended. I kept finding myself with my mouth dropped open in awe, and my friend couldn't stop smiling. Their performance was an incredibly spiritual sharing of souls to souls. I even hesitate to define it as a performance as it felt so much as if we, ourselves, were also giving up our energy to create a symbiotic coellessence of oneness. From their sharing in the the many languages of South Africa to ,especially, Amen/Swing Low, I lost all conscienceness of time and even place. I think we may have been on the edge of glory for the entirety of the evening. We f could have stayed for hours longer...and we weren't alone. After the last song, the audience had been standing and it seemed that no one could comprehend that the evening had come to an end. We were sorry it did, so as we drove home we enjoyed listening to the CD of the concert. Ever grateful to Ticketmaster for updates so I was made aware of the performance date and able to get tickets.

Great show. These folks put their hearts and souls in to their performance. The singing was wonderful. Dancing was fun and exuberant. A true gospel choir. A wonderful, joyful testament to Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit that resides within each person of the choir. God bless them all. Help them to keep performing and spreading the Good News!

I am a recent fan and purchased some of their music on ITunes so when the opportunity to see them in concert was presented I had to go. The music is uplifting and their performance was awesome. Their harmony is amazing! The Lincoln Theater in downtown Columbus is a treasure. It was my first time to attend a performance there and I was impressed with it.

It was a good performance musically and energetically, but it was much too loud. A few of the individual singers may have needed amplification, but not the group as a whole.

What beauty and movement in a choir! What wonderful arrangements. Great musicians! Too bad the sound was so lame that the soloists could not be heard above the choir\u2026.and the whole choir sounded like they were in another room rather than right in front of us. We were about half way back from the stage and I found myself straining to hear them. I wanted to feel the music\u2026\u2026.not happening\u2026.so no one danced or hardly moved in their chairs. I know that it is usual for only a part of a choir to tour. Would have liked a few more voices\u2026.was expecting the whole compliment. Good Friday upliftment was my idea\u2026\u2026..and I was disappointed. The concert had great potential\u2026..unfulfilled.

EXCELLENT, lots of energy, great voices, good selections.

They were amazing! The music was beautiful and soulful.

The singing was excellent and the costumes gorgeous! I was amazed at the dancing! The men kicked as high as Irish dancers and were so agile!! The drumming and guitars added much to the performance. I think there was a problem with the keyboard, but it didn't stop the performance!

Soweto Gospel Choir's performance was amazing! The voices, the instruments, the movement, the dance... All incredible and very enjoyable!

Joyous and uplifting concert! The energy level was high from start to finish.

I could hardly stay in my seat! This talented choir is one of the best showes I have seem at the Lyell B Clay Center and I sincerely hope they will come back. They were a blessing!

A night of quality performance and obvious joy spread by the entertainers. I loved the songs the best when there was only one or two accompanying instruments and liked the least, the electric guitar accompaniment. Their sound as a group is so pure that the instruments actually had a tendency to distort their harmonies. However, there was enough in the two acts to make any critical audience member happy. I would like to see them again....they are very special.

Very average show. Really disappointed as I expected much better vocals. Sound was a disaster.
