Consonance: Calendar
| Mar 26, 2012 | Umoja Community Choir 7th AnniversaryR Richmond California USA |
Awesome, simply awesome!! That's the only way to describe Consonance's performace at the Umoja Community Choir 7th Anniversary. The program feature several opening acts, but the best was last. And that was the performance given by Consonance. The group did a five song set of old and new songs. The opened with the funky redition of "I Wanna Go To Church" led by Rev. Sam Cox. The choreographed moves of the group were smooth and really let the audience know these artists are real pros. The followed that with another song from the "Message Of Hope" cd called, "The Power". This time it was Mack Williams on lead. He weaved a masterful story with the song and ended the Al Green inspired song with a flare. The group then reached back to do a song written by Mack Williams almost 45 years ago. The song was entitled "He Cares" and it really allowed the group a chance to showcase their harmony. From the way it was received by the audience, it is certain that the group will be inserting this song in their set on future engagements. Next came the rousing song entiled, "Close To You". This upbeat, hypnotic gospel was lead by Paul Foster, Jr. It was up-tempo and crowd pleasing. Paul worked the crowd with his in-the-audience presentation. He followed that song with the old standard, "Toiling On". This song was originally performed by Paul Foster, Sr. when he was singing in the Soul Stirrers, and now performed by his son. Paul, Jr. is keeping the legacy alivee. The last song was "Come On In This House" to be released on the upcoming cd by the group. Mack Williams and Paul Foster, Jr. shared the lead on this toe-tapping gospel that had the audience on their feet clapping. The performance was really solid. We have come to expect such performances from the group, but this was a special one for all who attended the event. So, be sure to catch them the next time they perform because you owe it to yourself if you like good gospel music. Jackie Taylor Booking Manager for Consonance |
