Friendship Baptist Church will host The Earl Nelson Singers in a Concert Sunday, November 21, 2010 at 4:00 PM.  Friendship Baptist Church is located at 2912 Pleasant Grove Rd., Lansing, MI 48810.

 

The Earl Nelson Singers Company is an integrated ensemble of singers from the Lansing, Michigan area, and are dedicated to collect and perform only those arrangements that tend to capture the original mood, style, and character of the sacred song of the slave. The group's repertoire also includes some songs representative of the early "gospel" style which typified the urbanized church songs of descendants of ex-slaves after the Civil War in America's history.

 

There will be a freewill offering to raise money for the ongoing fundraising efforts of the church to build a pipe organ.  Please visit the following websites for more details http://www.earlnelsonsingers.com/ and http://friendshipbaptistlansing.org.
