Independent Journalism in Miami Needs You
We need to raise $10,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
You don’t have to have silver hair or a neck full of wrinkles to enjoy the sounds of music that emanate from the Miami chamber choir Seraphic Fire. This assemblage of professional singers from around the world turns the chorus image on its head, performing classical music with young, hip flair and even appearing on Shakira’s Oral Fixation II album — and it doesn’t get any cooler than going through the scales with a vixen who can wind her waistline the way Shakira can. At 4 p.m., the crew will reassemble for its seventh season and perform tunes that fuse bluegrass, gospel, and traditional African-American spirituals into a program called Precious Lord, Take My Hand. Seraphic Fire’s summer gospel series is consistently a favorite among young and old.
