Sing Freedom! African-American Spirituals - Conspirare, Craig Hella Johnson
Product Details
Product Description
One of the seminal American musical traditions, the spiritual is dramatic, powerful, and profoundly beautiful — the bedrock for much of American music that was to follow. Craig Hella Johnson and Conspirare explore here the genre’s wide range of expression and its eloquence in speaking to universal aspects of the human condition.
