“A theatre, a literature, an artistic expression that does not speak for its own time has no relevance.”

The African Choral and Gospel Championship is a platform to bring as many African talents as possible together in a host country and give them as much exposure as time will allow. It is also to celebrate African music with the motive of uniting nations through their complex arts that can be effectively demonstrated to positively position Africa as truly a haven of musical talent.
Music is part of the African culture and it comes naturally to the African. The African has songs that represent every situation he finds himself, be it a joyous or a sad occasion. Singing unites people and entertains many. It has the power to tell one’s story to the understanding of all. Africa has a story which needs to be told to an audience with undivided attention and that is exactly what African Choral and Gospel Championship seeks to do. The festival seeks to inspire people to sing together no matter which musical genres they represent or which artistic skills they may have, while sharing best practices with each other.
The championship is for African ensembles both living in Africa or in the diaspora, ensembles of African descent or Non-African ensembles with African interest.
