DARTMOUTH COLLEGE GOSPEL CHOIR

It's irresistible—even if you're standing outside a rehearsal when the Gospel Choir is singing, the music resonating through the walls causes an unexplainable energy to surge through your body which may result in an uncontrollable swaying of the body or just an uplifting of your spirits. Whatever the result, the choir's combination of energy and passion is sure to be contagious. The DCGC performs a wide variety of gospel music ranging from spirituals to the most modern day contemporary hits including many non-traditional, innovative surprises. The choir performs with an amazing 12-piece band every Fall and Spring to large crowds in Spaulding Auditorium. Now in his sixth year, Artistic Director Walt Cunningham, out of Chicago, continues to impress audiences with a stunning choir and novel programming.
