After a triumphant and inspiring run, the Birmingham Youth & Young Adult Fellowship Choir has been eliminated from America’s Got Talent.

The choir performed Alicia Key’s “No One” for Tuesday night’s semifinals competition against 10 other acts, and just 6 were able to move on. 

Host Terry Crews asked Choir Director Ahkeem Lee how he was feeling after learning they wouldn’t be moving on: 

“We’ve been able to put Birmingham on the map, and we’ve been able to put the talents of these young people up, and they did an amazing job.”

The Birmingham Youth Fellowship Choir, however, is returning to the Magic City heroes after representing their city on the national stage. Here are some images from throughout their time on the show.
