To finish up our week on this Friday before Christmas, we turn to a choir that has recently been formed at Paul’s Place, a service organization in the Washington Village/Pigtown neighborhood of Baltimore. Paul’s Place has provided services for the people in that neighborhood for more than 30 years, including hot lunches, clothes, health care, and programs for children. Several members of the Voices Rise Choir -- Marvin, aka ----Wolfman;---- Luther; Deborah Travers; Chris Nephew; Wanda Lewis; Marc; Deborah and Ser Floyd -- have been kind enough to come to our studio today and sing us a few Christmas carols. They're accompanied in the studio by guitarist Dr. Jeremy Lyons.The directors of the Voices Rise Choir are two brothers who are graduates of the Peabody Institute, Douglas Benjamin and his brother, Benjamin Buchanan. We streamed this segment on Facebook Live, and you can check out the video (with apologies for the orientation problems at the beginning of the file) at WYPR's Facebook page: facebook.com/wypr881fm.
