The Spirit Within

An Introduction To The History Of Gospel Music

This is an opportunity to travel across the history of gospel music with song, exploring the different stages of the evolution of this wonderful music from its beginnings in the cotton fields, through to negro spirituals, the introduction of blues and jazz, gospel music as the background of the civil rights movement and coming to modern gospel, which now includes soul, funk, jazz, pop and rap music.

In each moment we share this music which is so powerful and emotive, the focus always being to explore, feel and enjoy without analyzing. The force of the voices of many united for the same cause; liberation, dignity, salvation, hope and simply to celebrate life itself.
