Songs of Praise: The Good News of Gospel (S2022EP40 BBC One Sunday 9 September 2022)
The Good News of Gospel: Sean Fletcher is in London to look into how gospel music, which has roots in the hymnals of people of African and Caribbean descent from the 19th century, influences beliefs and way of life in the UK.
We meet a passenger who came to this country in 1948 aboard the renowned ship at the royal dedication of a monument honouring the Windrush generation at London’s Waterloo Station. Sean is exposed to the sights, sounds, and excitement of Soul at St. James’s, a gospel choir performance and monthly workshop with the goal of fostering joy and goodwill. Additionally, he meets a well-known blind steel-pan player from Trinidad who tells him about the significance of his Christian faith and the steel-pan in Trinidadian culture.
Mica Paris performs in addition to musical selections from Kensington Temple, Trinity Baptist Church in Croydon, and LSO St. Luke’s.
