There's no battle like a spiritual one! In HELL IN THE CHOIRSTAND, Jeremiah David Day, an anointed Gospel musician, receives an invitation from Ezekiel Baptist Church, to become their minister of music, but Renard Singleton, the church organist, resents being overlooked for the music minister position, and enters into a spree of revenge against Jeremiah through botched choir rehearsals and petty squabbles with individual singers. Renard concentrates the majority of his activities, however, in the spiritual realm. Unbeknownst to Jeremiah, Renard is a member of the Society of Tyrus; a secretive, demonic cult of musicians with chapters (The Pentagrammatory) that span across the country. Renard prepares a series of musical spells and incantations; prescribed from their secret book (Codified Manual of Tyrus) whose origin dates back to the 9th century and believed to be inspired by Heaven's (excommunicated) original chief musician, Lucifer. Renard's intention - use music to erect confusion among God's people through the worship services. But God has sharpened Jeremiah's weapon. A battle ensues as a musical showdown amidst a worship service where human and instrumental voices unite to summon the ear of God and mobilize an angelic host. The Heavens are telling! HELL IN THE CHOIRSTAND is a revelation of the power that music possesses and how faith in God restores and upholds a people, a city, and the world.
