Music is a heavenly gift. It is one of the only gifts that
transcends the barriers of language and creed. The inspirational
and charismatic music of the Bahama Brass Band stirs a range of
emotions from overwhelming peace and contentment to sheer bliss.
The harmonic arrangements combined in the music of the Bahama
Brass Band are the culmination of many influences; the most
important being our heritage and faith in Almighty God. The world
famous Bahama Brass Band was organized in 1925 by four ministers of
the Gospel namely; Bishop Hermis Ferguson, Bishop Alvin S. Moss,
Bishop James R. Cooper, and Pastor Frank Cunningham. Today, with
the combination of its Nassau and Grand Bahama segments, the
membership exceeds 100.
This band plays an important role in the ministry of the Church
of God of Prophecy as evidenced by its performances at local and
state conventions as well as the bi-annual worldwide General
Assemblies.
The late Bishop Stanley R. Ferguson, first colonial overseer
prophesied that the day would come when this band would play before
Kings and the Rulers of the earth. On July 10th, 1973 the prophecy
was fulfilled during The Bahamas' Independence Celebrations. In
attendance to witness the ministry of this band were; Prince
Charles, Prince of Wales, representative for his mother Queen
Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom, Sir Roland Symonette, former
premier of The Bahamas, Rt. Hon. Sir Lynden Pindling, prime
minister of The Bahamas, prime ministers and government
representatives of St. Lucia, Jamaica, Bermuda, St. Kitts, Grenada
and thirty (30) Latin American countries.
