EXPLORING THE GOSPEL FUSION ARRANGEMENTS OF THE RECORDING COLLECTIVE By TYLER WILLIAMS A PRODUCTION PAPER Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music in Commercial Music, Media Composition and Arranging in the School of Music of the College of Music and Performing Arts Belmont University NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE November 2020 Acknowledgements This project would not have been possible without the contributions of numerous individuals. I first want to thank Dr. Tony Moreira for being such an encouraging presence during my time here at Belmont. The fruits of his musical instruction can be seen and heard in the arrangements included in this production. Thank you also to Keith Mason and Dr. Peter Lamothe, whose seminar classes directly impacted the trajectory and execution of this project. I am deeply grateful to the musicians whose incredible talents brought pure magic to the recording process. These arrangements would merely be notes on a page without the performances of Danny Marquez, Winner Olmann, Danny Diaz, Hunter Spivey, Krystal Gutierrez, Justin Barahona, Dwight Hernandez, and Mykeyly Hernandez. Thank you to my good friend, Eric Uplinger, for going above and beyond, working miracles and lending your professional ear to the production and mixing of these recordings. I want thank Dr. Chuck Lewis for encouraging me to begin graduate studies and for first introducing me to the joys of church music ministry. Christian Ramos, thank you for allowing my musical and ministerial gifts to grow and flourish during our time in ministry together, and for introducing me to the magic of secondary dominant progressions nearly a decade ago! Thank you to my mother, Leslie Howington, for your unending love and encouragement. And most importantly, I would like to thank God, the giver of all gifts, who is worthy of every word that is ascribed to Him in the lyrics of the songs found within this project. iii Contents Tables ................................................................................................................................... v Examples ............................................................................................................................ vi Presentation of Material Introduction ............................................................................................................. 1 Chapter 1: Historical Background ........................................................................... 6 Chapter 2: Gospel Instrumentalists and Their Techniques .................................... 21 Chapter 3: Gospel Vocalists and Their Techniques .............................................. 35 Chapter 4: Analysis of Three Songs by The Recording Collective ....................... 42 Chapter 5: Analysis of Three Original Gospel Fusion Arrangements ................... 73 Chapter 6: The Production Process ..................................................................... 100 Conclusion ........................................................................................................... 118 Appendix A: Chapter Four Scores ................................................................................... 121 Appendix B: Chapter Five Scores ................................................................................... 178 Appendix C: Additional Gospel Fusion Arrangements ................................................... 226 References ....................................................................................................................... 256 iv Tables 1. “Christ Be Magnified” Programming List ................................................................... 101 2. “King of Kings” Programming List ............................................................................. 102 3. “Lion and the Lamb” Programming List ..................................................................... 102 4. “Who You Say I Am” Programming List ................................................................... 102 5. “Yes I Will” Programming List ................................................................................... 102 6.

  • Southern Black Gospel Music: Qualitative Look at Quartet Sound
    LIBERTY UNIVERSITY SOUTHERN BLACK GOSPEL MUSIC: QUALITATIVE LOOK AT QUARTET SOUND DURING THE GOSPEL ‘BOOM’ PERIOD OF 1940-1960 A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE SCHOOL OF MUSIC IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN ETHNOMUSICOLOGY BY BEATRICE IRENE PATE LYNCHBURG, V.A. April 2014 1 Abstract The purpose of this work is to identify features of southern black gospel music, and to highlight what makes the music unique. One goal is to present information about black gospel music and distinguishing the different definitions of gospel through various ages of gospel music. A historical accounting for the gospel music is necessary, to distinguish how the different definitions of gospel are from other forms of gospel music during different ages of gospel. The distinctions are important for understanding gospel music and the ‘Southern’ gospel music distinction. The quartet sound was the most popular form of music during the Golden Age of Gospel, a period in which there was significant growth of public consumption of Black gospel music, which was an explosion of black gospel culture, hence the term ‘gospel boom.’ The gospel boom period was from 1940 to 1960, right after the Great Depression, a period that also included World War II, and right before the Civil Rights Movement became a nationwide movement. This work will evaluate the quartet sound during the 1940’s, 50’s, and 60’s, which will provide a different definition for gospel music during that era. Using five black southern gospel quartets—The Dixie Hummingbirds, The Fairfield Four, The Golden Gate Quartet, The Soul Stirrers, and The Swan Silvertones—to define what southern black gospel music is, its components, and to identify important cultural elements of the music.

  • James M. Black and Friends, Contributions of Williamsport PA to American Gospel Music
    James M. Black and Friends Contributions of Williamsport PA to American Gospel Music by Milton W. Loyer, 2004 Three distinctives separate Wesleyan Methodism from other religious denominations and movements: (1) emphasis on the heart-warming salvation experience and the call to personal piety, (2) concern for social justice and persons of all stations of life, and (3) using hymns to bring the gospel message to people in a meaningful way. All three of these distinctives came together around 1900 in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, in the person of James M. Black and the congregation at the Pine Street Methodist Episcopal Church. Because there were other local persons and companies associated with bands, instruments and secular music during this time, the period is often referred to as “Williamsport’s Golden Age of Music.” While papers have been written on other aspects of this musical phenomenon, its evangelical religious component has generally been ignored. We seek to correct that oversight. James Milton Black (1856-1938) is widely known as the author of the words and music to the popular gospel song When the Roll is Called Up Yonder . He was, however, a very private person whose failure to leave much documentation about his work has frustrated musicologists for decades. No photograph of him suitable for large-size reproduction in gospel song histories, for example, is known to exist. Every year the United Methodist Archives at Lycoming College expects to get at least one inquiry that begins, “I just discovered that James M. Black was a Methodist layperson from Williamsport, could you please tell me…” We now attempt to bring together all that is known about the elusive James M.

  • Contemporary Christian Music & The
    PLAYING THE MARKET: CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN MUSIC & THE THEORY OF RELIGIOUS ECONOMY by Jamie Carrick B.A., The University of Calgary, 2007 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Religious Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) October 2012 © Jamie Carrick, 2012 Abstract Contemporary Christian music (CCM) is a fascinating and understudied part of the religious vitality of modern American religion. In this dissertation the theory of religious economy is proposed as a valuable and highly serviceable methodological approach for the scholarly study of CCM. The theory of religious economy, or the marketplace approach, incorporates economic concepts and terminology in order to better explain American religion in its distinctly American context. In this study, I propose three ways in which this method can be applied. Firstly, I propose that CCM artists can be identified as religious firms operating on the “supply-side” of the religio-economic dynamic; it is their music, specifically the diverse brands of Christianity espoused there within, that can allow CCM artists to be interpreted in such a way. Secondly, the diversity within the public religious expressions of CCM artists can be recognized as being comparable to religious pluralism in a free marketplace of religion. Finally, it is suggested that the relationship between supply-side firms is determined, primarily, by the competitive reality of a free market religious economy. ii Table of Contents Abstract . ii Table of Contents . iii List of Figures . iv Acknowledgements . v 1 Introduction . 1 1.1 Introduction . 1 1.2 Religion & Popular Culture .

    ―I Sing Because I‘m Free‖: Developing a Systematic Vocal Pedagogy for the Modern Gospel Singer D. M. A. Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Crystal Yvonne Sellers Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2009 Dissertation Committee: Loretta Robinson, Advisor Karen Peeler C. Patrick Woliver Copyright by Crystal Yvonne Sellers 2009 Abstract ―I Sing Because I‘m Free‖: Developing a Systematic Vocal Pedagogy for the Modern Gospel Singer With roots in the early songs and Spirituals of the African American slave, and influenced by American Jazz and Blues, Gospel music holds a significant place in the music history of the United States. Whether as a choral or solo composition, Gospel music is accompanied song, and its rhythms, textures, and vocal styles have become infused into most of today‘s popular music, as well as in much of the music of the evangelical Christian church. For well over a century voice teachers and voice scientists have studied thoroughly the Classical singing voice. The past fifty years have seen an explosion of research aimed at understanding Classical singing vocal function, ways of building efficient and flexible Classical singing voices, and maintaining vocal health care; more recently these studies have been extended to Pop and Musical Theater voices. Surprisingly, to date almost no studies have been done on the voice of the Gospel singer. Despite its growth in popularity, a thorough exploration of the vocal requirements of singing Gospel, developed through years of unique tradition and by hundreds of noted Gospel artists, is virtually non-existent.
