African American Heritage Hymnal has Negro
spirituals, gospel hymns, and religious
music of the African-American church--with
its unique style—that were handed down by
oral tradition for generations. Now, these
priceless melodies have been codified in
print.
The African American Heritage Hymnal provides
lyrics and piano scores for 586 traditional
hymns and songs that have been a source of
inspiration and hope for Blacks through the most
difficult times.
This is the hymnal that should find its way into
the personal libraries of each church musician,
hymnologist, and ethnomusicologist in the world.
Added features of the American Heritage Hymnal are
a full year's responsive weekly readings,
litanies developed to suit the Black liturgical
year, and extensive indices.
