Anthology Of African American Spirituals

A Collection For Voices And Orff Instruments

The history of the African American people was one of physical hardship and emotional anguish, yet the music arising from this struggle - the spiritual - was one of deeply-felt emotion. This collection of spirituals, arranged for voices and Orff instruments, is much more than a mere song collection. It is a chronicle of expression that will enrich and uplift both children and adults alike. The Complete Edition includes arrangements of over 55 songs, historical background, suggested program uses, and cultural connections.
