White Gospel

Post by Gray » Tue Mar 25, 2008 11:58 am

Did anyone see the recent documentary on BBC4 called 'White Gospel'?

I thought it was excellent, really interesting.
It's routes are in the songs of English 17C field workers but now is heard only in the Southern States of the US.
The program even looked at how the 'note heads' in written music differ from the traditional circular shape.

I hope someone else saw it! :)
