Info

Clash of the Choirs is a reality talent contest miniseries that debuted on NBC in the United States on December 17, 2007. There were four episodes scheduled in the “quick competition”. Maria Menounos is the host of the program, which was performed live from Stage One at Steiner Studios in Brooklyn, New York. The format was developed by Friday TV from an idea from the Swedish singer and choir leader Caroline af Ugglas. The format was a multi-city “bragging rights” competition between 20-person choirs assembled in the hometowns of the recording artists that support them. In the 2007 competition, the choirs competed for a cash prize of $250,000, backed in part by Sony Pictures in support of its upcoming movie release, First Sunday. The film, about petty criminals using a choir in a neighborhood church as part of their scheme, was released 11 January 2008, in the United States and Canada and throughout Europe in April 2008. The prize was in the form of a contribution to a charity active in the artist's hometown. The choir led by former 98° singer Nick Lachey won the 2007 competition, which was decided by public vote after four nights of live performances. Patti LaBelle's choir finished second, followed by Blake Shelton's, Michael Bolton's, and Kelly Rowland's. The remaining teams received $50,000 each of donations, courtesy of General Electric, parent company of network owner NBC Universal.

Clash of the Choirs Audience Reviews

GazerRise Fantastic!
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Rui Neves The show was good, healthy and had a powerful message. The choirs were awesome produce, it is impossible to join a choir and learn 7 songs in less than 3 weeks. But they were all good, expect Patti's choir which was completely amazing and powerful. Patti Labelle and her choir brought soul and the spiritual factor to the show. You just need to look to the charts to see that people just like white pop common music, so was not a surprise that Patti's choir didn't win, but they were in another league, it is a pity they only made second place. Lets give the props to Michael Bolton, Kelly Rowland, Nick Lachey, Blake Shelton and Patti Labelle, for the wonderful show and the hard job of join 20 voice and learn many songs in a few time.
wdaher OK, the celebrities didn't really put it together, the professional choirmasters did. But the performances, though not perfect, were *very* good. The pit band was superb (kudos to the rhythm section and especially that tastefully hot bass player). The overall quality of the music was very high, with only a couple mediocre performances throughout the competition.The lack of HDTV was a shame though. The audio quality was generally good, although several songs started with bad mixing and levels. Everyone I know that watched enjoyed it very much and we hope it becomes a yearly event.
BeJay212 Clash of the Choirs: What a treat! We were so enchanted that we did not miss one minute of the program. Finally you have given us a program that soothes the soul. And on top of it it was entertaining and a nail-biter to the end. This program was absolutely fabulous and a great pity it is over. Perhaps you could think about airing a similar program that chooses the best choir from more cities and would therefore be running for a longer period of time which would run once a week for a longer time until a winner is chosen. I am sure there are a great number of artists who would like to take part in such a program, and there will be viewers who will enjoy it tremendously. The impact of the choir music was such that we used a lot of Kleenex in our household! It was truly heartwarming, exciting and a treat for the music-lover. Again congratulations for a great program that ended too soon! Beate Zahn
