Soul Singers

Duration: 29 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One Northern Ireland HDLatest broadcast: on BBC One Northern Ireland

Soul Singers follows the journey of members of the Belfast Community Gospel Choir as they prepare for their annual winter concert.

For ten years the Belfast Community Gospel Choir has been spreading joy across Northern Ireland one show at a time, and this documentary exposes what being a part of such a diverse and creative group of singers is like.

The first of its kind in the country, BCGC was the brainchild of Marie Lacey, ‘the choir mummy’ who has added her own Northern Irish flair to the choir's soul and gospel music.

Throughout the film we meet a few of the choir members, including Bongi, Jill and Jenny. Each has a story to tell, and a reason to sing with Marie and the BCGC. Show less
