Dr. Camille Taylor’s National School Gospel Choir Competitions
1998 National Gospel Choir Competitions - New York City
Dr. Taylor’s last competition year was 2009. He subsequently died and the over 20 year legacy was not continued.
There were four divisions; Elementary, Middle, High School and College/ University. Friday morning was elementary and middle school. Friday night was high school and Saturday night was the college/ university competition. Please note, these were school gospel choirs that competed in 13 categories. Competition time was about 20 minutes.
This video source is a VHS tape. The video quality has degraded. However, the audio quality was highly processed. As is common with many videographers, there was no house mike.
I hesitated to put up these clips due to the audio quality however I know that there are those out there who participated in these events and do not have a copy of the videos. Enjoy
