About

Under the direction of the Emmy-winning Terrance Kelly, the Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir brings together singers and instrumentalists who embody a community of diverse races, cultures, and faiths. Their mission is to inspire joy and unity among all people through black gospel and spiritual music. Founded in 1986, the Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir was born out of a gospel music workshop led by the exuberant Terrance Kelly at Living Jazz’s Jazz Camp West. It became an independent non-profit organization in 1991, and since then, the award-winning Choir’s exquisite harmonies and stirring gospel repertoire have led to performances with a wide variety of esteemed groups, such as The Five Blind Boys of Alabama, and the Duke Ellington Orchestra, and more recently with Edwin Hawkins, Cece Winans, Vanessa Williams, and Lenny Kravitz. The Choir also appears on Grammy-winning albums by Linda Rondstadt, MC Hammer, Tramaine Hawkins, among others, and was invited to be the first act to perform at the Chase Center for the ribbon-cutting ceremony this past fall.
