Australia's premier gospel choir, Café Of The Gate Of Salvation, is an exciting a cappella (unaccompanied) choir inspired by the African-American vocal tradition: the passionate, committed and exciting music of gospel and spirituals. This unusual aggregation of souls first collected in 1986 in Sydney, under the direction of Tony Backhouse. Now with musical direction provided by Dynes Austin.
