The Count Basie Center Gospel Choir brings its signature power, passion, and uplifting spirit to Voices for the Centennial Celebration, delivering a soul-stirring performance that celebrates our shared humanity and the connections that unite us all. Joined by guest artists and area choirs, the ensemble creates a powerful musical experience that honors a century of community, resilience, and hope, reminding us that music has the extraordinary ability to transcend borders, bridge divides, and inspire meaningful change.

The Count Basie Center Gospel Choir is headed by Music Director Gwen Moten and assistant music director Dr. B Dexter Allgood, designed as a community initiative open to interested performers in New Jersey and surrounding areas. Moten, whose resume includes international presentations and appointments in Newark, the United Nations, the White House and elsewhere, believes the Basie Center Gospel Choir will be an engaging cultural and artistic offering, designed to develop a holistic and cultural ecology throughout the Basie Center community and beyond.

The Count Basie Center Gospel Choir has had many successful performances with stars like Melba Moore and collaborations with New Jersey Symphony Orchestra.
