Classical/Gospel Harpist Jeff Majors Invited to Perform on 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' on Tuesday, February 28

NEW YORK, Feb. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- The internationally-acclaimed contemporary gospel musician and classical harpist Jeff Majors has been invited to perform on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" on Tuesday, February 28.

A longtime admirer of Majors' music, Oprah asked Majors to appear on her show after hearing him perform at the Coretta Scott King Memorial Service in Atlanta.

"Having Oprah as a fan is truly a blessing," said Jeff Majors. "The magnitude of being asked to perform on 'Oprah' by Oprah herself did not hit me until days later."

For Majors, an artist who's been involved in writing and performing inspirational music for most of his life, the opportunity to share his God- given talent with one of the world's largest television viewing audiences is an honor beyond words.

Jeff Majors' latest album, Sacred Chapter 6, on Music One/Sony Urban Music/Epic Records, is in stores now. The album's first single, "God's Gift," pairs him with R&B singing sensation Kelly Price. "God's Gift" climbed to number 3 on the Billboard Gospel Radio chart, and is currently making its way up the Urban AC Radio and Record charts. Sacred Chapter 6 is the latest volume in a 12-part "Sacred" series. (Oprah has, reportedly, been known to begin her day listening to Majors' 1998 release, Sacred, and its soulful version of "Psalm 23," arranged by Jeff Majors).

In addition to bringing the sounds of the classical harp to contemporary gospel music, Majors' gospel mission has called him to become the Vice President of Gospel Programming for 12 of Radio One's radio stations nationwide in 7 markets. He is host of both the top-rated show "Sunday Morning Joy," which features the best contemporary and classic gospel music, and his own gospel variety show, "The Gospel of Music with Jeff Majors," which airs on the TV-One cable network.
