Join us on Sunday, May 5th at 4pm, where the spirit meets jazz. Featuring the Universal Gospel Choir.
Led by, Lonnie Delisle as the Music Director since 2013. Universal Gospel Choir (UGC) is Vancouver’s longest running community gospel choir, and the only designated ‘multi-faith’ choir in BC. For almost 40 years we have delivered high-calibre, accessible concerts to audiences throughout the lower mainland, pairing beautiful music with powerful messages of justice and inclusion, and representing a broad spectrum of cultural and faith journeys within greater Vancouver and across BC.
UGC is known for being both justice oriented and community minded. We believe in the power of music to transcend boundaries, invoke emotion, challenge perceptions and bring people together, making it the perfect partner for social change. Our repertoire weaves together reflective dialogue on current events, powerful messages of justice and inclusion, meaningful song lyrics, and beautiful music, leaving audiences feeling hopeful and inspired.
Through our music we highlight and celebrate the diversity that exists within our communities. With over 70 individual voices in the choir, each with their own unique experiences, cultural background, spirituality and beliefs, we aim to create a community and musical experience that is accessible to all people from all walks of life.
