The World Famous Harlem Gospel Choir
Blue Note131 West 3rd Street, New York 10012
The World Famous Harlem Gospel Choir brings its gospel program to Blue Note for a WBGO Presents Brunch performance. The Sunday afternoon show is billed as an all-ages event, with the choir as the sole announced act. It is a brunch engagement rather than Blue Note's usual evening schedule, pairing a daytime set with the club's brunch menu.
No additional artist biography, personnel, repertoire, hometown, or critical commentary is provided in the available event information. What is clear is the billing: this is a performance by The World Famous Harlem Gospel Choir, presented under the WBGO Presents Brunch banner at Blue Note in Manhattan.
Blue Note Jazz Club is a dedicated listening room in the heart of Manhattan's jazz district, where the music is the focus and the space is designed to let the sound fill the room. The club features a stage with a small audience area, and the atmosphere is one of quiet concentration on the music. Shows typically begin at 8:00 PM with a second set at 10:30 PM, and the audience sits on chairs close to the stage. The club has a bar, and drinks are available. The experience is primarily about listening to live jazz, with occasional gospel and soul performances, and the audience often stays to talk and enjoy the music after the sets.
