Beyond The Sound Of Music (BTSOM) is one of CBA's newer initiatives. It replaces (but builds on) 3hours Praise - Non-Stop For Jesus, a previous CBA activity launched several years ago.
"We came together to praise God for three hours without much preaching, but believing God for prophecies and a word for His people," said Rev. Peace Goodey, CBA senior pastor.
"As it unfolded we saw the need to expand and bring under the platform of BTSOM up-and-coming gospel singers or artistes. In other words, Beyond The Sound Of Music is bringing both single and group gospel artistes together to perform almost like a competition and inspiration for each other," she said.
CBA insists on the best performances and the highest standards from BTSOM artistes in order to be able to compete nationally and internationally.
Said Rev. Goodey: "We intend to partner with top-notch single or group artistes until Beyond The Sound Of Music becomes a household name in the gospel music industry with the backing of the Holy Ghost.
"We are therefore opening this opportunity to the general public hoping to attract people with passion for worship like us at BTSOM, thereby bringing glory to God."
