One of the highlights of the Akron Symphony’s annual schedule is its Gospel Meets Symphony concert, which draws upon the talents of the greater Akron community to form its Gospel Meets Symphony choir to perform inspirational gospel and classical music.
That volunteer choir incorporates singers and musicians from about 70 area church music programs and local gospel groups, along with the GMS 2.0 Choir, which gives youth ages 12-18 a chance to shine. Also featured will be vocalist Shirley Daley from gospel ensemble Anthony Brown and Group TherAPy; Daley is a Cleveland School of the Arts alum who began singing in church at age 6. Akron Symphony music director Christopher Wilkins and choirmaster Jonathon Turner will be leading the evening.
