“I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.” Psalm 34:1
The legendary gospel collective known as the Black Celestial Choral Ensemble, or BCCE, celebrates its 35th anniversary this weekend. The BCCE will perform a concert on Saturday in Hendricks Chapel that will include an alumni section as well as guest directors.
Here is a small collection of photographs that have appeared on the SIF site in the past seven years or so from their various annointed performances.
We got a chance to speak with BCCE Director Byron Canada before the concert, and he talked about the history of the group and the significance of this particular anniversary.
