ABOUT OIGC:
The Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir (OIGC), a nonprofit 501(c)(3) arts organization, was born out of a gospel music workshop led by the exuberant Terrance Kelly at Living Jazz’s Jazz Camp West in 1986. OIGC became an independent nonprofit organization in 1991.
Since then, the award-winning choir’s exquisite harmonies and stirring gospel repertoire have led to performances with a wide variety of esteemed groups, such as the Five Blind Boys of Alabama, and the Duke Ellington Orchestra. The Choir also appears on Grammy-winning albums by Linda Ronstadt, MC Hammer, Tramaine Hawkins, and others. In 2022, OIGC acquired the Oakland Youth Chorus. Now boasting a total of eight choirs under our administrative umbrella, OIGC has become a force for creating positive community through music for people of all ages.
