The Cultural Programming Advisory Board and UD Gospel Choir present “A Night of Gospel” featuring Kim Burrell on Friday, April 13, 2012 at 7:30 pm in Mitchell Hall. Tickets on sale now!
Kim’s jazzy gospel style has captivated the industry for over 20 years. A multi-Stellar Award winner and Grammy Award nominee, Kim Burrell has quickly become one of the most influential voices in the genre, often said to be “this generation’s Ella Fitzgerald.” With her distinct and captivating voice, Kim reaches beyond the traditional gospel audience. She has five albums of her own, and has also performed alongside Hezekiah Walker, Ty Tribbett, Shirley Caesar, Ricky Dillard, Kelly Price, Stevie Wonder, and Le’Andria Johnson.
Long-time friend of the late Whitney Houston, Kim Burrell sang a tribute at Houston’s funeral entitled “A Change is Gonna Come,” and performed “I Look to You” on-stage with Houston at the BET’s Celebration of Gospel in 2011.
Please join us in this night of gospel, praise and worship!
