IT'S A WRAP - TBH CONQUERS CARNEGIE HALL

"A religious presentation sharing and showing the growth of talented children and young people from around the nation in preparation for professional ministry around the world"

September 30th, 2008

7 PM

Weill Recital Hall

***********************************************



Just as the winds blew in from the South, so did "The Brothers Harris."


Tonight, in the Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall
154 West 57th Street
New York, New York

You will see children at various levels, preparing for professional ministry. The Children of God Organization, strongly encourages children and youth to develop their God given talents to be used for the betterment of the overall world.

Children of God toured Germany in 2007 doing workshops that connected other German Youth to God. They have signed their names, prayers and words of encouragement to the Berlin Wall. They sang to sick children and youth in the Germany Hospital, Walsrode Region.

Mrs. Joubert,
informed us tonight
that the standing on this stage
places a
good, serious, understanding of what it takes
for them to reach
their higher goals, continuously in all
areas of music and the arts



Among the sparkling teardrop chandeliers, gilded gold walls, the renaissance archetial and the velvet drapes, the participants were dressed for the occasion.
"The prestige of Carnegie Hall."

























Calm, relaxed, and ready to take the stage to perform the Brothers Harris eagerly awaited their turn to take the stage.




Robert and Ryan, being introduced by Quayla Bramble, who looked like a beautiful Egyptian Goddess, took the stage to sing their rendition of "The Prayer." Just in "Yolanda and Donnie" form, the brothers brought great elegance and presence to the song.

Gracing the stage for the second time, The twins, decked out in tuxedo's, fitting for the occasion, eloquently, sang "My Help" Psalm 121; a Song of David. Befitting, in only God's fashion, the phenomenal pianist, (named) David Joubert, made this David's Psalms selection along with the melodious sound of "The Brothers Harris" inviting, and it was apparent that the "King" was in the room.

Ironically, Ryan's middle name is David, so it seems that King David was all over this one.





The show stopper of the night had to be 5 year old Darius. The youngest member of "The Brothers Harris, patiently waited, long into the night (to make his debut) singing his song "Blessings and Glory." In the true fashion of "The Brothers Harris, Lil Darius took the stage and commanded the audience. His pitch, tone and ad lib ability was "on point" and remarkable for his age. Darius is the drummer of The Brothers Harris group, his skills are remarkable there also. It is quite apparent that he has a love for music and a great ear to hear music.



Other performances included: piano performances by Katherine Gonzalez, dubbed "the princess," Jenine Faith Lycorish, "Mt. Vernon Suite", Reinagle, rendition was the highlight of the pianist performances. The Wallace Sisters, "McDonald's Gospelfest Winners," Quayla Bramble, Hannah Trueheart Brown, and La'Asia Dabney Brown, Alisha Cole, Silvera Stachakay Cole and Chris Welch also had great vocal performances.



The Brooklyn, NY based Excelsior's Children, under the Direction of Mrs Debbie Wallace, gave a great performance singing their rendition of Richard Smallwood's, "How Excellent" with The Children of God, under the direction of Hannah Trueheart Brown, ending the night with their rendition of the McClurkin Project's, "We Praise You", which was lead by NaKera Thorze.

It is obvious, that at various levels, the children are growing in their development. The professionalism, that is being instilled in them from a young age will continue to follow them through their adulthood. It is imperative, that the families of these young people continue to support the efforts of the children and the arts.

Perfection, will come from the experience of trial and error. It is important that these young people take advantage of every opportunity to use their gifts. All situations will not be equal when it comes to performing, but the more they perform (no matter how large or small the crowd) the better they will be able to deal with the unexpected.

This was a great opportunity. One that will linger in the memory "forever."


Carnegie Hall? Did that! What's next!
Should be the attitude
