32-1801 Gospel Choir

This course requires entry-level music students to learn and perform solo and ensemble gospel literature, including traditional spirituals and anthems. Students will initially learn by ear but ultimately read, notate, analyze, and describe music in all gospel traditions. Additional emphasis is placed on understanding the relationship among gospel music, the other arts, and the cultural context in which contemporary gospel music functions. An end-of-semester performance is scheduled, with additional performances possible subject to member availability.
