Songs of Praise

Gospel Choir of the Year 2024 Final (2024x3)

Air date: Jan 21, 2024

Music to lift the spirit and stir the soul… it’s the final of the Songs of Praise Gospel Choir of the Year 2024, hosted by Mark De-Lisser. In the previous programme, five of the best amateur choirs from across the UK took to the stage at the Monastery in Manchester. Now they have a second opportunity to impress the three celebrity judges: TV’s favourite choir master Gareth Malone, director of Kingdom Choir and godmother of UK gospel Karen Gibson, and singer and broadcaster Muyiwa Olarewaju. Each choir perform their own choice of gospel song: Faithworks Gospel Choir from London sing Trust Me, Nottingham’s Sing It Bold Community Gospel Choir sing Lean on Me, Oxford Gospel Choir perform Swing Low, Sweet Chariot, Soul of the City from Exeter sing Jesus Is the Man 2 (Bless The Lord), and Kudos Gospel Choir from London sing Perfect Praise.
