Call to Conscience Performers
The Matsiko Choir, Dance, & Drum Ensemble
Matsiko gets it name from the Ugandan word for "hope" and the children sing songs that give just that to those who listen. An ICN Matsiko performance includes much more than the children's beautiful harmonies. During the concert they share cultural dances, act out dramas, and perform some of the most powerful and complex drum routines ever heard. When you see the choir in action, your heart will melt as the children share their individual stories.
Total Experience Gospel Choir
The Total Experience Gospel Choir bursts with love, joy and enthusiasm - humanity! It is hailed as one of the Pacific Northwest's finest soulful ensembles. Pastor Patrinell Staten Wright started the group as a gospel music class at Seattle's Franklin High School in 1973. Since then the choir has grown to become a nationally and internationally known gospel singing group.
