Decolonizing Contemporary Gospel Music Through Praxis by Robert Beckford Pdf
Is contemporary Black British gospel music a coloniality? What theological message is really conveyed in these songs? In this book, Robert Beckford shows how the Black British contemporary gospel music tradition is in crisis because its songs continue to be informed by colonial Christian ideas about God. Beckford explores the failure of both African and African Caribbean heritage Churches to Decolonise their faith, especially the doctrine of God, biblical interpretation and Black ontology. This predicament has left song leaders, musicians and songwriters with a reservoir of ideas that aim to disavow engagement with the social-historical world, black Biblical interpretation and the necessity of loving blackness. This book is decolonisation through praxis. Reflecting on the conceptual social justice album 'The Jamaican Bible Remix' (2017) as a communicative resource, Beckford shows how to develop production tools to inscribe decolonial theological thought onto Black British music(s). The outcome of this process is the creation of a decolonial contemporary gospel music genre. The impact of the album is demonstrated through case studies in national and international contexts.

Numbered Sheet Music with Worship Songs for 8-Note Tongue Drum: Gospel Songbook by Helen Winter Pdf
You have never played music before or you cannot read sheet music, but you want to play famous and inspiring hymns and spirituals. Don’t worry! You will begin to play right away. We made our pictured sheet music as simple as possible. You’ll play by number-coded circles. No musical staff or notes. The easy-to-play songs and melodies were adapted especially for beginners. The melodies have been transposed to one octave and simplified. Also, the number-coded notations have been added and complex notes and symbols have been reduced. Such simplification makes it possible for people to play melodies, especially those who can’t read music or who have never played music before. The steel tongue drum and the handpan are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations, and body. You don't need classical music training or knowledge of music theory to play them. The primary purpose is relaxation, meditation, and traveling through your inner world. No previous training or skills are necessary to enjoy these fascinating instruments. For tongue drums that have numbered musical notation, numbers 1 to 7 represent the keys of the diatonic major scale. For example, a C Major scale would be: 1 =C (do), 2 =D (re), 3 = E (mi), 4= F (fa), 5 = G (sol), 6 = A (la), 7 =B (ti / si), 8 (i) = C (do) Your drum can be numbered from 1 to 8, where 8 is note C of the next octave. We use the number 1 with a dot above the digit for this note because the most popular models of tongue drums use this enumeration. All songs in this book have been written with numbers because most modern tongue drums have numbers engraved or painted on their keys. This book is aimed at those new to music and musical instruments, whether child or adult. It allows for simple and easy learning that requires no previous knowledge of reading music. Because most tongue drums include and are tuned to involve the notes of the main octave, all songs from this book are possible to play in one octave. You may need to skip some songs if you have less than one octave of keys on your drum. Each tongue drum is very different and it is impossible to accommodate songs for all kinds of tongue drums in one book. There are the following hymns and spirituals in this book: Amazing Grace Babylon's Falling Be Still My Soul Christ Was Born on Christmas Day Deck the Halls with Boughs of Holly Elijah Rock Every Time I Feel the Spirit God Is So Good Great Big Stars Great Day He's Got the Whole World in His Hands Holy, Holy, Holy I've Got Peace Like a River Jesus Loves Me Jingle Bells Jolly Old Saint Nicholas Joy to the World! The Lord is Come! Just As I Am Kumbaya, My Lord Michael Row the Boat Ashore O Sanctissima! Praise Him, All You Little Children Shall We Gather at the River Silent Night, Holy Night Sinner Man Soldier of the Cross Song of Praise The First Noel Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star We Are Climbing Jacob's Ladder We Are Marching (Siyahamba) We Wish You a Merry Christmas When the Saints Go Marching In Who Built the Ark?

Father of Black Gospel Music an Interview by Robert L. Taylor Pdf
Mr. Thomas Andrew Dorsey's telephone number was given to the writer of this newly released book by the name, Thomas A. Dorsey, Father of Black Gospel Music An Interview, by a directory assistance operator in Chicago, Illinois. The writer, at the time, (1975) took a chance and called, not expecting the first publisher of Black Gospel Music, to answer the phone. A very hoarse voice said "Hello," and the writer recognized it immediately as being the voice he had heard on a recording about Gospel Music that Mr. Dorsey had done. After being asked if he would consent to being interviewed Mr. Dorsey unenthusiastically said yes. He was unenthusiastic the writer later discovered, because fortune hunters and status seekers had been plaguing him for interviews. Honored that Mr. Dorsey had said yes, the writer took a train from Kansas City, Missouri to Chicago, to interview this man who had written hundreds of songs.
The Sound of Light is a sweeping overview of the history of gospel music. Powerful and incisive, it traces contemporary Christianity and Christian music to the 16th century and the Protestant Reformation after examining music in the Bible and early church music. From the psalms of the early Puritans through the hymns of human composure of Isaac Watts and the social activism of the Wesleys, gospel music was established in 18th century America. With the camp meeting songs of the Kentucky Revival, the spirituals that came from the slave culture, and the hymns from the great revival after the Civil War, gospel music advanced through the 19th century. The 20th century brought recording technology and electronic media to the table. Gospel music has developed with Christian revivals and the history of American gospel music is the history of Christianity in America. Gospel music reflects the American spirit of freedom and the free market as a Christian culture emerges in the 20th century, providing a spiritual as well as economic foundation. The Sound of Light presents gospel music as part of the history of contemporary Christianity. It is a work broad in scope that defines a music essential to understanding American culture as well as American music in the 20th century.
