Praise and Worship and Offering

GUEST ENSEMBLESWe welcome two international singing ensembles who have been in the Washington, DC area performing at the Serenade! sponsored by Classical Movements.

INSINGIZI This extraordinary trio from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe offers uplifting performances filled with harmonious a cappella singing, traditional chants, hand percus-sion, and superb choreography. Their songs possess a gentleness and honesty that stir the soul, con-veying a wide range of challenges facing people today. A particular highlight of their live shows is the energetic performance of the traditional "gumboot dance" of the oppressed South African miners of long ago.

Insingizi's music is filled with hope, optimism and faith, including such stirring compositions as Amasango, which means heavenly gates, a song that imparts the group's message of the ultimate answer to the world's seemingly insurmountable obstacles.

LES PETITS CHANTEURS DE LAVAL (The Laval’s Boys’ Choir) continues a long tradition of the Manecanteries. Founded in 1981, the choir celebrated its 25th birthday in 2006. From a few boys the group grew to 100 members today from ages 8-18.

The choir participates in a wide va-riety of concerts, shows, recordings and events every year. They have

sung with their sister choir Les Voix Boréales (Borealis Voices) many times with the Montreal Symphony Orchestra under the direction of famous conductors such as Eliahu Inbal, Michel Plasson and Kent Na-gano, in prestigious concert halls such as Carnegie Hall, The National Art Center in Ottawa, The Lanaudière Festival and La Place des Arts in Montreal. The choir participated in many shows with famous Que-becois artists such as Celine Dion, Jean-Pierre Ferland and Gregory Charles, just to name a few.
