"The Mighty Sparrow" - FASCINATING

THE WORD IS ALREADY OUT!!!!!

“THE MIGHTY SPARROW” WILL BE SINGING IN NEW JERSEY ON JULY 11, 2009.

WHERE? At the BCA AUDITORIUM, in HACKENSACK, NEW JERSEY.

BUT WHO TAUGHT SPARROW TO SING CALYPSO?

READ HIS BIO AND YOU WILL SEE THAT:

"He attended the New Town Boys School (in Trinidad & Tobago) where he was selected to sing in the boys choir of St. Patrick's Catholic Church. This was his initial involvement in music."

" His vocal abilities also reflect his childhood role as the head choirboy who sang baritone and tenor in Latin in the church."

"The harmonics of the Gregorian Chants and the Plainsongs of the church that were embedded in him would later affect the depth
and intensity of his compositions."

There is much more to learn (and enjoy) about "The Sparrow."

So please visit us again tomorrow.
