Gospel singers lift voices and crowd
By SONDRA PICKARD
Reporter
Spirit and joy filled Rudder The
ater Saturday night when four
Texas gospel choirs joined the Texas
A&M Voices of Praise in worshiping
(iod with song at Gospel Fest ’85.
"We hope that you will sing along,
clap along, shout along and do what
ever you feel,” said Andria Gold-
wire, secretary of the Voices of
Praise, welcoming the guest choirs
and audience. "Please get comfort
able because we’re here to have a
good time. You’re welcome and
you’re at home.”
Visiting gospel choirs included
Psalms 150 from Lamar University,
the University of Texas Inner Vi
sions of Blackness, The Gospel Aires
from Amarillo and the Baptist Stu
dent Movement Choir f rom Prairie
View A&M.
Felicia James, mistress of ceremo
nies, said. “If you’re sitting here to
night and you’re not moved at least a
little, then you probably need to re
evaluate yourself.”
James’ comment came after an
uplifting, handclapping perfor
mance by the Voices of Praise, the
A&M gospel choir which is a sub
committee of the MSC Black Aw are
ness Committee.
Taking their lead from the Voices
of Praise, each of the guest choirs
took a turn on stage, singing two or
three ol their own spiritual selec
tions to the theme “Count It All
.I«y.”
Although all 750 tickets lor Gos-
|x*l Fest ’85 were sold, the seats
themselves were of little use to those
attending because most of the sing
ing, (iappiug and swaying was done
standing up.
Shelton Bady, a member of the
UT gospel choir, said, “Gospel Fest
is very spiritual and highly inspira
tional. It is definitely a hreatlt of
fresh air.
“We came here tonight to show
our support to Christian organiza
tions around the state.”
Derrick Mathis, a member of the
Gospel Aires, traveled 10 hours with
the Amarillo choir to attend Gospel
Fest.
“It’s very nice,” Mathis said. “This
is the first time I’ve been, ami I
really enjoyed it. I really did have a
wonderful time. These are fantastic
choirs and Ft! like tu thanks
im iting us."
After the guest choir pui
mantes, all five choirs gathtrts
stage to perform three masscki
lections, bunging Gospel fat':
a reverberating conclusion.
Rene Davenport, presidents
Voices of Praise, said, Tmia
