Stomp and Praise

Stomp and Praise: A Gospel Extravaganza



Went to this concert at Wesleyan University tonight. There were groups from Wesleyan and University of Connecticut performing. The featured performer for the first half of the program was the Kersten Stevens Experience. Kersten plays the electric violin and had performed at the Apollo in NYC and recently won a prize.

Nubian Gents and Feminine Fire ended the program. They were an exciting group. Their unique blend of rap, dance and spoken word got the audience to its feet. We really exercised our bodies in Jesus' name!

The highlight of the program for me was a liturgical dance piece by two Wesleyan students: Menherit Goodwyn and Nakeea Jordan. They were amazing. Their simple movements and concentration made for a beautiful tribute to the Lord. I could have watched them for an entire concert.
