Night of the Proms in Antwerp,
The world famous Harlem Gospel Choir was founded in 1986 by Allen Bailey. Allen, who is known for his work with Michael Jackson, The Commodores and Prince, got the idea for the Choir while attending a celebration in honor of the first national Martin Luther King, Jr. Day at the renowned Cotton Club in Harlem. The Choir consists of highly talented and motivated singers, hand picked from the black churches in Harlem. The theme of their performances is “bringing people and nations together and giving something backe”. The Choir will perform for Pope Benedict XVI in the New York Yankee Stadium on April 20 and had the honor of performing before Pope John Paul III as well as for Nelson Mandela. The Choir has performed with Paul McCartney, The Chieftains, Diana Ross, Jimmy Cliff, Cindy Lauper, André Rieu, Elton John, Razorlight and… U2. It was Bono from U2 who gave the Choir recognition by christening it “Angels in Harlem”. |

An inspiring image and note Geert. Considering the conditions you were working under the composition is well done. Couldn't resist jan's suggestion regarding removal of the big screen. Had to give it a try. Also straightened the stage while I was at it.

Hi Geert,
Very neat photo! I like how the light is radiating on the singers with the dark background. I do think that I would have cloned out the big screen to the right as I find it a little distracting. Nice simple frame which is complimentary to the photo.
Nice! Lisa
Zeer dankbaar onderwerp en uitstekend gecadreerd.
Goed werk Geert !
