Performing gospel music from and inspired by the rich African American choral tradition, we honor those who have created and carried this music through unspeakable hardship and faith. While firmly rooted in gospel, MCGC is a non-denominational community choir with members from all over central and northern Vermont. The choir is now directed by Verdis LeVar Robinson and accompanied by a full band of local professional musicians. ​​Learn more at montpeliergospel.org.
