The OIGC Family of Choirs
Since 1986, anyone who wants to sing Black Gospel music has been welcome here.
We teach the Black Gospel tradition at the root of American music, from The Town where it crossed into the mainstream.
Today, we're 500 singers and dozens of musicians across 10 ensembles, ages 5 to 95, from every background,
learning and performing, creating community, and experiencing joy… together.
Take a look at each of the choirs that make up OIGC and discover the one that’s right for you!
