The Aeolians of Oakwood University was originally organized in 1946 by the late Dr. Eva B. Dykes. Since its inception, the choir has traveled widely, touching the hearts of both young and old with their inspirational singing. Subsequent conductors include: Mrs. Joni Pierre-Louis, Mr. Harold Anthony, Dr. Jon Robertson, Dr. Alma M. Blackmon, Dr. John Dennison, Dr. Ricky Little (a former Aeolian), Dr. Eurydice Osterman, Michele Cleveland, Lloyd Mallory, Dr. Julie Moore, Norman Crarey, Dr. Wayne Bucknor (a former Aeolian) and presently, Jason Max Ferdinand also a former Aeolian.

Directors have made considerable contributions over the years. Under the direction of Dr. John Dennison, the Aeolians performed at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, receiving flattering reviews. Under the direction of Dr. Alma M. Blackmon which began in 1973, the group was propelled into national and international prominence with the performance of over 200 concerts in the United States, Bermuda, the Bahamas, the Virgin Islands, Canada, Poland, Romania, and Great Britain. Under the current director, the group tours extensively, and has extended their international prominence to Trinidad & Tobago, Russia, and Jamaica.

Aeolian performances present a repertoire of choral music which ranges from the Baroque era to the twenty-first century. They have become an authoritative exponent of Negro spirituals and Work songs which express the yearnings of their forefathers to be free.

Under the God-inspired direction of Jason Max Ferdinand, the choir has placed 1st two years in a row (2010 & 2011) in the iSing HBCU Challenge hosted by Reid Temple AME Church in Lanham, Maryland, and being named in 2014 as the four-peat national HBCU choral champions. They have also been presented with the keys to the City of Huntsville with Dec. 3rd & Dec. 5th being days named in their honor.

Soul Children of Chicago - Perfect Praise (Oh Lord How Excellent) ft. Le...

 
  This version of "Perfect Praise" (correct name for "How Excellent" as we sometimes refer to it) varies a bit but is equally as powerful as the next.  This is one spectacular gospel vocalist we have been blessed with in our generation.  Praise God for her.   Listen closely and compare the two versions for your listening and contemplation pleasure.

Perfect Praise - Lecresia Campbell Soul Children

This is a favorite that I want to have presented at my final service.  Be sure to remember that, Bro. Ron.

Lecresia Campbell

                              

                           Lecresia Campbell 

Actress, Singer, Worshipper are words that best describe Lecresia Campbell. 

Born in Chicago, as a child, Lecresia wanted to be a school teacher. After receiving her Bachelor of Arts in Applied Voice from Tougaloo College in Tougaloo, Mississippi, Ms. Campbell taught elementary school for 8 years. Ms. Campbell took a leave of absence to pursue her passion.

Ms.Campbell was the lead singer on Walt Whitman & the Soul Children of Chicago’s 1990 gospel smash, “Perfect Praise (How Excellent).” After recording her rendition of “Perfect Praise (How Excellent),” which took the nation by storm, Lecresia became a background vocalist for Vanessa Bell Armstrong and later shared the stage as a solo artist with singers such as Larnelle Harris, Donnie McClurkin, Mary Mary, Gerald Levert, Stephanie Mills, and a host of others.

Lecresia began captivating audiences in musical plays such as Dreamgirls, in which she starred as Effie. She performed in two of David Talbert's hit shows Mr. Right Now and His Woman, His Wife. Both productions toured the country performing to sold out audience for 3 years. She recently played TV Judge Mathis’ mother in Tell it to the Judge.

 In 2008,Ms. Campbell recorded a solo album, Even Me, which earned her a Stellar Award nomination for Best Female Vocalist – Traditional. Most recently, she could be heard on The Shalom Church City of Peace Mass Choir’s album, Simply Amazing, singing “When I See the Blood;” and leading “Draw Me Nearer” on the Mississippi Mass Choir’s 2014 release, Declaration of Dependence.

 No one who has heard Ms. Campbell sing will forget the skyrocketing high notes that she would pepper into her presentations. Lecresia has been a regular on Trinity Broad Casting Network (TBN) with Tommy Tenney, author of The God Chasers, and Bishop Eddie Long, pastor of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia.

Ms. Campbell had the number five spot on the chart with the hit Magnify from the Gospel Heritage Praise and Worship project and currently is working on the DVD of Lecresia Campbell’s Greatest Hits. Lecresia was in a lane of her own, a sought-after psalmist best known for her song “Perfect Praise (How Excellent),” which was recorded with Walt Whitman &  The Soul Children of Chicago. She mixed traditional gospel with her classical training, something we’d later coin “gospera.” But Lecresia was a powerhouse; a show-stopping singer that knew how to invoke the presence of God.
