The Good News of Gospel

Sean Fletcher is in London to investigate how gospel music, with roots in the 19th-century hymnals of people of African-Caribbean descent, helps shape life and faith in the UK.

At the royal unveiling of a monument commemorating the Windrush generation at London's Waterloo Station, we meet a passenger who arrived here in 1948 onboard the famous ship. Sean experiences the sights, sounds and excitement of Soul at St James's, a monthly gospel singing workshop and choir performance with a mission to spread faith and joy. He also meets an internationally renowned blind steel-pan player to hear about the importance of the instrument to Trinidadian culture and the significance of his Christian faith.

With music from LSO St Luke's, Trinity Baptist Church in Croydon and Kensington Temple alongside a performance from Mica Paris.
