Totland & Styve with sadface

Here's a picture we received from our dear friends Heine Totland and Gisle Børge Styve. They want to tell us that they miss the Stavanger Gospel Company. And we must say we are missing them too. Last week SGC had lots of fun with them. Great people, great musicians, big hearts! Thank you for 6 amazing concerts together! We really recommend the Christmas album Totland/Styve has done with the Salvation Army this year. It's packed with amazing perfomances by great Norwegians artists' from the last ten years, together with new songs recorded by Totland/Styve in Kenya. Check it out on record stores or your local Coop grocery store. All income from the record will go to the Salvation Army.

Joy to all the people!

Stavanger Gospel Company are looking back at two amazing evenings in Frøyland og Orstad kirke and St. Petri kirke, together with the entertaining and gifted duo Heine Totland & Gisle Børge Styve and their companion Per Willy Aaserud (trumpet). With a focus on joy, which is the profound message of Christmas, theese evenings were filled with laughter, great music and the important reminder about caring for others. Our hearts are filled with joy and gratitude. 

We are so grateful to SR-Bank for making theese concerts possible, and to all our partners for contributing to the activity in SGC throughout the year. We are humbled and honoured by the audience for filling every seat both evenings, and grateful for all the musicians contributing, excellent sound/light engineers, hosting and hospitality at the venues and every single person contributing in their own special way. 

Early in the 1900s a one word Christmas telegram was sent by the founder of the Salvation Army William Booth. The word was OTHERS. A new song with the same title is this years single on the annual Christmas album from the Salvation Army. Read more about it here

SGCompany in studio mode

SGC has been in studio recording for no less than four different albums the last month.
This includes two songs for our Christmas-EP featuring Heine Totland, two songs on The Norwegian Salvation Army's Christmas-album,
one song for the next album from the South African gospelartist Audrey Mbuyazi and one song on the coming album of the amazing gospelsingerCinque Cullar from Chicago.

We are really happy with the results, and are humbled by the oppurtunity to both release our own material, and also for the priviledge of singing together with such great artists. 
 

Back on track

Stavanger Gospel Company are proud to release our new website, providing news and information concerning the choir and its activities. The site peaked a million visitors the spring of 2011, but still the old site had a large potensial for improvements. Together with front-end developer Sjur Sørskår  we have implemented fresh design and functional structure both for our intern and extern requirements, and we are happy with the result. All information will from now on be written in english. You are welcome to browse through the menus, and we will appreciate any feedback from our readers.

Looking back at This is gospel 2011

March the 18th-20th 2011 Stavanger Gospel Company once again had the pleasure of hosting several international guests and artists for THIS IS GOSPEL 2011 in Stavanger, Norway. Award-winning gospel artists Donnie McClurkin and Dorinda Clark-Cole visited Stavanger to inspire, teach and give the people in Scandinavia a close meeting with the lifestyle of American gospel music.
