Taller
de Gospel was born in Barcelona in 1997 as a result of the
joint of a group of fools for Gospel, New Orleans music and all
the afro-american musical tradition in general. The intention of
Taller de Gospel, from the beginning was to make Gospel
known and to try to popularize it, but lately this intentions
has been extended to other disciplines related to this rich culture
result of the meeting of the african and european cultures in a
strange territory for both of them, America.
At the same time, Taller de Gospel would like to become
a point of contact for all the Gospel and afro-american music lovers
in order to carry out activities that will help to promote and spread
Gospel music while we enjoy it.
The action range of Taller de Gospel was at the beginning, more
because a matter of geographical proximity, Catalunya but little
by little we are expanding till we reach the whole peninsular territory.
Our activities are focused on two different targets: the educational
subject and the divulging subject. The educative subject
is based on Emmanuel Djob’s workshops and from time to time
we carry out other activities like Didier Likeng's workshops. Talking
about the divulging activities, we try to promote
and spread the different Gospel and afro-american concerts and activities
that we can find in our territory. Some of which come from choirs
and vocal groups founded because of any of our workshops.
We think that is very important to remark that any training or knowledge
about the matter is needed to attend any of our workshops. What
for sure is absolutely necessary is the predisposition to
learn, have a good time and to let yourself go in order to express
and take out that special thing that each and everyone of us have
inside.
