| Summary: | Since the 17th century, black Americans have participated in two culturally distinct religious traditions. The first tradition represents that associated with white Protestant denominations. The second was independently developed by blacks, utilizing the concepts and practices retained from their West African heritage. These two traditions are easily distinguished by ideology, worship style and musical practices. The musical repertoire of black congregations that adhered to white Protestant doctrines is derived from official hymnals which include psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Conversely, the repertoire of churches, whose religious ideology is uniquely black, consists of spirituals and gospels. Songs of these two idioms are derived from several sources: 1) West African musical traditions; 2) black secular idioms; 3) original black compositions and 4) white Prostestant psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. |
