1994-Twinkie Clark performs for the President of the country of Burkina Faso, West Africa. He is the gentleman sitting in all white amongst his dignitaries and security at the beginning of this clip.
It's amazing how Twinkie and Marvin Winans have mastered the art of singing these kinds of songs with little to almost no VIBRATO. You can almost count the times that she used her vibrato but yet holds your attention through the whole song. Talk about vocal control. Amazing!!!
Thank you for posting - Evangelist Elbernita "Twinkie" Clark. This song blessed me this morning and ushered me straight to into God's presence. She is to this day a highly gifted and anointed woman of God.
So pure!! I love her this Anointed Vessel of JESUS. She is so Underrated........ She is one of the GREATEST writers, arrangers, musicians and singers and whatever she does in between!!!!!!
you know what holy rollers soldier, you are my kinda person! not many people would notice that she and marvin do not use a lot of vibrato but really minister a song effectively just the same. I am absolutely impressed by that...that indeed takes much anointing, vocal control, and familiarity with your voice...Awesome ministers of song....the both of them.
BeauBum89 I know right. the blood sugar and other medical issues plus being over 60 her voice has changed but she is still a icon deserving of honor for the work she has put out. Twinkie is one of the singers we learned a lot of runs from by listening to them
Actually vibrato is not produced by wavering between notes. Wavering quickly from note to note can be considered a turn or a trill (if its just two notes. My former teacher, (world reknowned teacher and pedagogue) Richard Miller used to tell us, vibrato is a result rather than a technique. When the voice is free of tension, breath-centered, pitch-centered and resonant, vibrato emerges; it is not taught.
She is blessing me! She doesn’t have all of her words right but she is blessing my life with her anointed gifts. God bless Dr. Twinkie Clark - “Queen of the B3 Hammond Organ”
Jesus truly is everything to me, and I think everyone should learn to trust him more (especially me) just because he's trustworthy. I truly thank God for the gift he's given Twinkie & the other's in her family.
2022 Still blesses me every single time I hear her sing this song...Lord I thank you for your loving grace that I can always trust in....Hallejuah! Thanking God for this powerful woman of God and her amazing gift of worship
I love hearing and seeing this version of Twinke singing this, it makes my heart happy...but i just noticed something... That camera at 3:09-3:15 looks like its from the early 1900's
Simply beautiful...emphasis on the SIMPLY...what a way to convey your heart and HIS heart all at the same time!!...all I can say is wow...and thanks for the great post!..
I've always thought this was recorded while she took her mother to see africa.. Based on the timestamp on the video.. I know its kind of far fetched.. But its what initially came to mind
In order to properly produce the sound of vibrato you would have to waver slightly over and under the note intended. When done at a consistant paceit gives the impresion that the note itself is 'shaking'.
It's something like that. The target note is right, but you go slightly above and under the note like a siren, but not as drastic because you will sound like a siren. lol. Balance it just slightly. It takes practice to get it right, but It will come to you.
I saw her last week and she was shouting...she doesn't use her cane anymore..she has lost about half her weight..and its inspired me to do the same...Twinkie is has lost a lot of weight
YALL ARE SOME SICK PEOPLE!!.. CRITICIZING SOMEONE FOR THEIR WEIGHT?..This was just around Mattie's death....and ALL the girls YES DORINDA TOO... gained STRESS weight...losing someone you LOVE..(your MOTHER)..is NO easy task...and Mattie's last days were no joke...and it DEFINITELY placed stress on Jackie and Twinkie....so whatever MEAN comments you may have toward ANYONE'S weight should best be left to your minds!!!
