Young Centre Resident Artist Andrew Craig returns with his celebrated Gospel Christmas Project, an awe-inspiring transformation of traditional holiday classics into joyous Gospel masterpieces.
The Gospel Christmas Project began as a special concert created by Andrew Craig for CBC Radio in 2006, evolved into a CBC television special that won a New York Festivals International Television & Film Award and was nominated for a Gemini Award, and has since seen a performance at the National Arts Centre (2007), Massey Hall (2007), and two sold-out concerts at the Young Centre for the Performing Arts (2008).
Musical director Andrew Craig infuses the impassioned and inspirational nature of Gospel music into a selection of the world's most-loved Christmas carols featuring stellar Canadian vocalists and musicians including Canada's beloved first lady of gospel, jazz and blues, Jackie Richardson, Juno and Gemini-nominated singer-songwriter Kellylee Evans, vocal powerhouse Chris Lowe, R&B star Toya Alexis and the Juno-Award winning Gospel ensemble Sharon Riley and Faith Chorale.
