HE SHALL BE GREAT II CALEB SIMPER II THE TABERNACLES

Choir: The Tabernacles
Conductor: Zubin Gibson

Composer: Caleb Simper (12 September 1856 – 28 August 1942) was an English composer and church organist. He gained fame for his prolific output of choral cantatas, anthems and organ works, which were widely performed and sold in their millions

The Tabernacles, since its inception by a group of young, enthusiastic, dynamic singers on 02 December 1967 ' The Tabernacles ' under its Founder Conductor, Late Kenneth V Gibson has steadily grown from a piano-accordion and an acoustic guitar group to a full fledged choir, rendering western light, semi classic and classical church music, pieces from Handel, Mozart, Beethoven and Bach. The group started with a small classical from Bach’s Jesu, Joy of Man’s desiring to singing some big classics like Mozart’s God is gone up, Handel’s Zadok the priest, Kyrie and Antonio Vivaldi’s Gloria, besides Negro Spiritual songs in the twin cities of Hyderabad and secunderabad.

The only choir group in the twin cities and one of the few in India to achieve a milestone of 55 years could only happen because of the zeal and interest, the will power and leadership qualities of the Founder Conductor, Kenneth V Gibson the conductor, supported by lots of love and dedication by the singers and musicians who have been part of the group. All Glory to God alone.
