560 EXPERIENCE SIZZLING SUMMER CONCERT SERIES PRESENTS THE EXULT CHOIR

About this event

Greatness of Gospel XV: Elevation will be on the newly renovated Mixxed Magic Amplified Theatre.

Mixed Magic Theatre’s cofounder Ricardo Pitts-Wiley formed the acclaimed Exult Choir in 2006 with the mission to preserve, celebrate and honor the great American tradition
of gospel music and its forebearers, in particular Annye R. Pitts and Barbara Bryant. Each year since then the choir has presented concert events that feature a collection of
songs that include Negro spirituals, traditional hymns, and the gospel music that would later influence blues, jazz, rhythm and blues, and rock music.

This year talented music director Kim Pitts-Wiley has chosen an intoxicating and eclectic array of songs that cover the full spectrum of gospel music, world music, and contemporary songs with a spiritual flare. The Exult Choir is celebrating an exemplary 15 years!

Mixed Magic Theatre’s acclaimed Exult Choir is one of New England’s most popular and celebrated gospel choirs, presenting four major concerts a year, as well as performing at numerous major events over the years, including Water Fire, opening for Dr. Maya Angelou at the Providence Performing Arts Center in 2007, for the Rhode Island Governor’s Office, annually at the Pawtucket Arts Festival and with the RI Philharmonic, the prestigious 2018 Challenger’s Summit in Watch Hill, RI, the 2017 and 2019 Pell Awards, the RI Civic Chorale, at MIT, The Cambridge Art Center and Hiberian Hall in Boston, Lily Pads Arts Center in Peacedale, RI, and annually at the Arts Café Mystic in Connecticut.
