Brooklyn Tabernacle
Directed by Carol Cymbala
She is the wife of the senior pastor Jim Cymbala and the daughter of the church founder, the late Rev. Clair Hutchins. She Doesn’t know how to write music but says “The good Lord has given me the gift to create and direct music through the holy sprit.”
They view one another as brother and sister. The choir starts each practice with a prayer asking the lord to bless their music and anoint their songs for the service.
The choir is a mixture of ethnic and economic
background.
After 25 years of recording and live performances, the Lord continues to use the Choir to carry the message of the Gospel around the world.
Pastor Jim Cymbala says “None of us would have
met if it weren’t for Christ. Our backgrounds are
diverse but we have things in common, we have been
saved and lifted up.”
The choir consists of 285 people.They have recorded three videos, three DVD’s, and numerous albums that won six Grammy Awards.
The Choir’s latest album project is entitled "Declare Your Name". Their concert venues in New York City have included Carnegie
Hall, Radio City Music Hall, the Paramount Theater,
and a sold-out performance at the Madison Square Garden Theater. “I just
want to see people drawn to Jesus Christ,” Carol
Cymbala says, “I want the music to be the arrow that
points them to Him.”
