Charioteers

The origins of this long running team of harmonizers go right to 1930. Then universities both black and white found there was a mass audience for close harmony renditions of slavery-era spirituals. So university-linked choirs and small groups followed in the footsteps of the pioneering Fisk Jubilee Singers, to promote their places of education. Some black universities rebelled against what they saw as the racist undertones of the "old plantation songs" and students at Howard University went on strike in 1909 and again in 1919, refusing to sing the songs while Wilberforce University in Ohio, the oldest college for blacks in the USA, banned the "negro folk songs" outright. But by the late '20s all that was changing.

Quartet singing in colleges had become a coast-to-coast craze. Every black college boasted a dozen or more amateur singing groups and local and regional contests between what had become known as 'jubilee' groups. And so it came to pass that a professor of music at Wilberforce University, Howard Daniel, organised the Harmony Four.

From earth moving moans of Mahalia Jackson, to the smooth gospel sounds of Sam Cooke, to today's acrobatic vocals of Kirk Franklin, gospel music does more than just sound sweet-it literally moves its listeners. Whether swaying to choirs or raising hands to the rhythm of soul-stirring crooners, gospel is one musical genre that should be both seen and heard. Once narrowly defined as religious, gospel has transcended those limits to become a profound force in American music and popular culture.

Chattanooga Girls Choir

The Chattanooga Girls Choir was founded by Mr. John Dyer under the moniker of "The Cantilena Singers." At the time, Mr. Dyer was faculty associate at Cadek Conservatory ("Cadek") in the Music Department of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga ("UTC"). Dr. Peter Gerschefski, head of the Music Department and Cadek wanted to start a children's choir at Cadek. Dr. Gerschefski knew about Mr. Dyer's background in choral music education so he asked him to form such a choir. However, Mr. Dyer believed that Chattanooga needed a choir especially for girls more than a co-educational children's choir because our city already had the long-standing Chattanooga Boys Choir but there was no similar opportunity for area girls. Mr. Dyer thereafter contacted local music teachers in area schools and asked them to identify and send any interested and talented girls to Cadek to audition for the new choir. Fifty girls auditioned and were all invited to become founding members of the ensemble. Within its first couple of years, the Cantilena Singers were renamed The Chattanooga Girls Choir (the "CGC").

Our membership is growing fast as the singing bug bites in the local area. Come and have some fun with people who all share a love and passion for singing.

Since the launch of the Bramhall Village Community Choir in September 2010, the choir has grown in numbers and performed for the public at a number of different events in the local area.

Chestnut Grove Quartet

From the Chestnut Grove Methodist Church in the mountains of southwest Virginia, this legendary (but little heard outside the region where they live) a cappella quartet has had a profound effect on gospel a cappella singing that far outstrips their local renown, influencing such local luminaries as Ralph Stanley, Doyle Lawson, and Ricky Skaggs, both in repertoire and performance style.

These selections are drawn from albums made by the group during the 60s, 70s, and 80s to capitalize on the enormous popularity of their local radio broadcasts and personal appearances in the mountainous areas of Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, North Carolina, and West Virginia. Stylistically, the quartet springs from the shape note singing schools of their youth and the Stamps-Baxter shape note hymnals so omnipresent in white Protestant churches of rural areas; their four part harmonies and parts singing is as old as the churches where they learned to sing.
