Brenda Jackson - An Instrument of Praise to God
INDNJC In Nomine Domine Nostri Jesu Christi
In the Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ
Pure Life...
Where one's heart is there is their treasure!
With her Gospel to Classical Touch sacred music is excellently and colorfully
interpreted and moderated by Brenda Jackson. Have a break in your daily work
and lay down your burdens. A refreshing musical experience!!
With her artistic, god-given talents, she exudes not only personal warmth,...
she allows hope to enter into darkness, breaks harnesses and enlivens! She awakens gratitude, spontaneity and stimulus, bringing human elements
together with God in the forefront. In other words, she is an absolute "PLUS" for spirit,
soul, artistry and culture - a well integrated balance. She is poetry and music in one.
Already - her appearance alone springs over all dimensions, values and fantasies.
Through her expressive Soprano, her liturgical interpretations and stage presence...
the energetic Brenda Jackson powerfully effects her audience with an elemental
heart-warming force leaving one with respect and fascination - in astonishment
of the powerful warmth and joy of life. She is simply a precious jewel - not
imitating - rather a natural aura.
At the moment Miss Jackson is preparing her new concert series
"The Spirit of Music".
