INTERNATIONAL PRESS QUOTES ON DIFFERENT SHOWS

“Marrow’s phenomenal range is the star of the evening. She can belt, she can coo, she can wail, she can lament -sometimes in the same song articulating each lyric with authority and feeling. Her robust, soulful arias resonate long after the last note has ended […]”

The Washington Post

“As soon as Queen Esther’s awe-inspiring voice is to be heard from the back of the stage, an electrifying passion takes hold of the audience.”

Le Parisien

“Her style, gestures and voice fill a room. Voices murmured sighs of relief and joy when she sang her last note, I had to shout my appreciation, as well.”

The Times

“This is a show filled with great classics, sensationally interpreted and spiritually uplifting. Once the choir lets go, nobody can stay in their seats.”

The Voice

“The show of the Harlem Gospel Singers is great. Cascades of infectious rhythms are convincingly  elivered and perfectly geared towards inspiring the mind, making every show an enormous success. They do not shy away from pounding rhythms with definite rock and soul influences.”

El País, Barcelona

“Indeed it is hard to sit still while listening to these […] singers with their wonderful voices and surpassing technique, displaying a joyful musical syncretism: a pinch of Jazz, some rocking guitars and inspired singing, combined with pure R’n’B, all melting with the true classic gospel songs.”

Elle France

“… elemental vocal force, magnificent musical sensitivity, mesmerizing vitality…”

Stuttgarter Nachrichten

“The audience was unanimous – there was tempo, zest, energy-loaded sound and a perfectly staged Gospel Show to see and hear. [...] A truly sensational stage show”.

Rheinische Post

“This Sunday the Gewandhaus is boiling over: row upon row the seats snap up as if standing ovations would help bringing artists and audience even closer together. But at some point the show has to end and the world’s most famous gospel group has to leave [...]”

Leipziger Volkszeitung

“Why the Harlem Gospel Singers are one of the most sought-after international show-acts? – Well, because they perform blues, gospel, soul in perfect arrangements. Because they have superior musicians and vocal soloist. Because their snappy choreographies speak of unadulterated joy of living. And because of that with Queen Esther Marrow they have a diva on stage whose voice is just stunning: mellow and velvety it effortlessly fills the room. Her voice has got a smoldering soulfulness conveying passion and pain, hope and comfort.”
