What's in a name?
When the Fisk Jubilee Singers were formed in America in 1871, their aim was to bring Spirituals and Gospel music to a wider audience. This is also our aim and so it seemed sensible to adopt that name for our choir. Since 2010 we were called: Thanet Community Gospel Choir. A long name that people frequently got wrong. Also, we want to establish our identity as a performing group. We're very proud to perform Christian songs but we also perform plenty of secular music. We're inspired by the roots of Gospel music and the branches. All of our music has the common aim to be uplifting and inspiring. This is the principle that guides Thanet Jubilee Singers.
