How Sweet the Sound: The Documentary – May 31 on BET

You’ve heard the hype; now on May 31 you can experience it for yourself as How Sweet the Sound premieres on BET at 11 AM EST/PST.

Presented by @radical.media and directed by acclaimed team Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky (Metallica: Some Kind of Monster, Brother’s Keeper), How Sweet the Sound is a one-hour television documentary event that chronicles the road to Verizon Wireless’ “How Sweet the Sound” 2008 national choir competition to find the “Best Church Choir in America.”

The film tells the story of talented Gospel choirs from coast to coast competing in Verizon Wireless’ How Sweet the Sound – a series of regional competitions, in major U.S. cities – all culminating in a roof-raising, powerhouse grand finale competition in Atlanta, Georgia. How Sweet the Sound gives viewers intimate access to these dedicated performers – on their tour bus, in their living room, or in the chapel of their hometown church – uncovering the stories and personal journeys to create unique portraits of these individuals and their groups.
