What do anime and gospel music have in common?
Easy! The answer: Tenshi Ni Anime Song Wo
The Glory Gospel Singers have released their first anime music album entitled "Tenshi Ni Anime Song Wo" (Anime Songs for the Angels). The album consists of 12 Japanese songs that are featured in world-renowned Studio Ghibli anime films such as "Ponyo," "Castle in the Sky," "Spirited Away," and several others. Although the group is from New York, the singers have managed to sing the entire album in Japanese. The album released in stores in Japan on November 2, 2011.
Phyliss McKoy Joubert, the musical Director of the Glory Gospel Singers, made the vocal arrangements for each anime song, giving each piece a taste of authentic, genuine, gospel flavor. These songs and more will be a major part of their annual Japan Christmas tour, starting December 2011 in Tokyo, Japan.
