Clash of the Choirs


I caught an episode of NBC's new Clash of the Choirs Monday night and have DVR-ed Tuesday's episode to watch when I have time. (http://www.nbc.com/Clash_of_the_Choirs/) Although you can't compare it to American Idol, I found it to be highly entertaining and simply delightful. My husband saw me watching it and commented on how I had a big smile on my face!

The program gives 5 superstar musicians the challenge of recruiting and directing their own amateur choir. The choirs each consist of members who reside in the star's hometown. Nick Lachey: Cincinnati, OH; Patti LaBelle: Philadelphia, PN; Michael Bolton: New Haven, CT; Blake Shelton: Oklahoma City, OK; Kelly Rowland: Houston, TX.

The choirs each perform a song selection and are judged by the 4 other stars. The best part is the winning choir will win a monetary prize to be donated to the choir director's charity of choice.

Having sung in several choirs over the years, I really enjoyed watching Clash of the Choir and look forward to the finale later this week.
