    ―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.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Carolina Digital Repository HEARING FAITH: MUSICAL PRACTICE AND SPIRIT-FILLED WORSHIP IN A CONTEMPORARY AFRICAN AMERICAN CHURCH Will Boone A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2013 Approved by: Jocelyn R. Neal David F. García Glenn Hinson Mark Katz Philip Vandermeer ABSTRACT WILL BOONE: Hearing Faith: Musical Practice and Spirit-filled Worship in a Contemporary African American Church (Under the direction of Jocelyn Neal) Hearing Faith offers an experience-centered exploration of musical practice among African American Spirit-filled Christians—a group of believers whose core religious identity centers on direct experiential knowledge of the Holy Spirit. The dissertation shows how these believers use music and dance not simply as media to communicate about religious belief, but as practices that help them negotiate existential challenges and complexities. In doing so, it brings a new perspective to the thriving and contentious scholarly dialogue about black churches, and demonstrates how the methodologies of ethnomusicology and existential anthropology can help build upon and expand the advances of this dialogue. Hearing Faith’s claims grow out of immersive ethnography with one independent African American congregation in Durham, North Carolina, and additional field research with African American Spirit-filled Christians in central North Carolina and Houston, Texas. Chapter 1 articulates the concept of a Spirit-filled imagination—a base of intellectual and embodied knowledge that both guides and grows out of the community’s practices, shaping what worshipers do and value.
