Harlem Gospel Choir

To celebrate MLK with Mom, we went to see the Harlem Gospel Choir. Entering the Sony Music Hall was itself an experience–a seemingly endless descending staircase in a decrepit stairwell. The hall itself is a throwback to music halls of years past; actually it is probably pretty unchanged from years past.

The choir was full of energy and talent, but more entertaining than soulful. A powerful rendition of Amazing Grace was the highlight.

It was the end of a NYC weekend trifecta of three very different concerts, Kris Davis, Meshell Ndegeocello, and the Harlem Gospel Choir. We also had a wonderful family get together and did some fun things together in New York. A nice sushi meal closed out the weekend.
