Some may remember Robert performing as a featured artist in Lorie Line’s Christmas show. Through multi-cultural harmony Robert Robinson and TCC Gospel Choir celebrate the rich tradition and spirituality of African American music.  Robert, the “Pavarotti of Gospel,” performs with voices of the Twin Cities Gospel Choir, backed by piano, bass, and drums.  From inspirational spirituals to rocking gospels, Robert & TCC leave audiences energized, hopeful, and filled with spirit. 

1991 brought Robert a featured role in “Nightingale” at the world-renowned Theatre de la Jeune Lune.  In 1992, Robert took part for the first time in Lorie Line’s Christmas tour and remained for 15 years with subsequent appearances on PBS and in Target stores nationwide.
