Singing the Spiritual

Posted by David French on April 24, 2009

The scrolling lyric idea for COMPUTER SINGING seems to be catching on! MICHAEL ROW THE BOAT ASHORE is a well known African-American spiritual song. Eric Bibb and Putumayo Kids invite you to follow the ball and singalong!

Would you like to find out more about the spiritual genre? In addition to WIKIPEDIA there is a very well prepared resource from Carnegie Hall. The historical significance of the venue becomes clear with excellent sound clips, archive photos and genre definitions. AFRICAN AMERICAN MUSIC is presented as a musical timeline. It is a musical journey from field songs, folk spirituals and syncopated dance through to neo soul, modern gospel and new jazz swing.
