The Spirituals
Before the Blues, Jazz, Gospel and Rock-n-Roll, America honed an original form of music. Slaves created this musical expression, with African roots and a biblical text, for deliverance and secret communication. The Spirituals traces the painful history of this American art form and efforts of The American Spiritual Ensemble to preserve the rapidly disappearing folk songs of the slaves.
