  • View This Film, Which Is Available to Rent Or Purchase on Various Platforms
    Amazing Grace: Aretha Franklin and Anne Shirley Published on Thu, 06/25/2020 - 15:52 This blog on “Amazing Grace: Aretha Franklin and Anne Shirley” was written in anticipation of an event scheduled for the “L.M. Montgomery and Vision” conference—a screening of the 2019 film Amazing Grace, introduced by Halifax writer Evelyn White. Due to the conference cancellation, this blog was not published. We hope that Evelyn’s insights inspire you to view this film, which is available to rent or purchase on various platforms. It took nearly fifty years before Amazing Grace—the documentary about Aretha Franklin’s 1972 live recording of a gospel album of the same title—made its way from a vault to theatre screens around the world. But film critics, music scholars, Black church historians, and everyday moviegoers have rightly hailed the 2019 release as well worth the wait. In a five-star review, a critic for The Guardian recounts a moment in the film involving the musical director for the recording, the Reverend James Cleveland: “At the halfway mark comes an astounding rendition of ‘Amazing Grace’ that is stretched out to nearly eleven minutes. The camera moves across the faces of the choir, who are first to leap to their feet in support. Then the audience, then Cleveland, who moves from teary to full-on sobbing. By the end of the song the entire church is a mess, but somehow Aretha keeps it together and hits each note perfectly.” Written in 1772 by British cleric John Newton, “Amazing Grace” has a complex history that includes its reputed links to Newton’s regret over his role, as a young sailor, in the Atlantic slave trade.

For more information, please contact: Brianna Hurley Catherine Simmonds TARO PR Elevation Pictures P: 647-466-7189 P: 416-583-5800 ext. 2003 E: [email protected] E: [email protected] SYNOPSIS The never before seen movie featuring Aretha Franklin recording the most successful gospel album of all time, Amazing Grace. Amazing Grace is crafted from never before seen footage originally captured in 1972. AMAZING GRACE – THE ALBUM Atlantic Records was the pioneering home of Ray Charles, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Otis Redding, Led Zeppelin, Cream, Roberta Flack, John Coltrane, and scores of other great Jazz, R&B and Pop artists. The Coasters, The Drifters, Ruth Brown, Ray Charles, Solomon Burke, Otis Redding, Sam & Dave, Wilson Pickett head the list of African-American stars that the label marketed during the 1950s and 1960s. Aretha Franklin had originally been signed to Columbia Records by John Hammond, who also signed Billie Holiday, Count Basie, Bob Dylan, and Bruce Springsteen. When her Columbia career failed to ignite, Atlantic Records signed her, and under the guidance of Jerry Wexler, Franklin’s career was transformed. Starting in 1967, her string of hits – “I Never Loved A Man”, “Respect”, “Baby I Love You”, “Chain of Fools”, “Think”, “Don’t Play That Song” – kept Atlantic Records at the top of both the Pop and R&B charts. Franklin’s success disguised the fact that the label was losing touch with its R&B heritage following the death of Otis Redding and Ray Charles’ defection to a rival company.

  • Peace Be Still”—James Cleveland (1963) Added to the National Registry: 2004 Essay by Robert Marovich (Guest Post)*
    “Peace Be Still”—James Cleveland (1963) Added to the National Registry: 2004 Essay by Robert Marovich (guest post)* Original album James Cleveland In 1962, Savoy Records artist James Cleveland, a rising star in the religious music field, wanted to record with a church choir. His reputation as an effective choir director was firmly established in 1959 when he led Detroit’s Voices of Tabernacle to acclaim on its debut album, “The Love of God,” for HOB Records. Savoy executives were eager for Cleveland to replicate his Voices of Tabernacle success for their label. Since the Voices were under contract to HOB, Cleveland had to find another choir to work with him. On a recommendation from Savoy producer Fred Mendelsohn, Cleveland asked the Reverend Lawrence Roberts, supervisor of gospel recordings for Savoy, about borrowing his Angelic Choir. Organized by Roberts as a community group called the Voices of Faith, the Angelic Choir was now established as the church choir at Nutley, New Jersey’s First Baptist Church, where Roberts was pastor. Since the choristers had limited experience in a recording studio, Roberts believed their true essence would shine through if Cleveland recorded with them in the church, before a congregation of familiar faces. Though unconvinced a live recording was the most efficient way to make a record, Cleveland consented and Savoy greenlighted the project. Recorded in 1962 at First Baptist, literally a “little wooden church on a hill,” Cleveland and the Angelic Choir’s first two live Sunday Service albums, “This Sunday in Person” and “How Great Thou Art,” were as commercially and critically successful as “The Love of God.” First Baptist invested its portion of record sales into a building campaign.

  • Spirituals and Gospel Music Performance Practice: a Dual Curriculum That Bridges the Cultural Divide
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: SPIRITUALS AND GOSPEL MUSIC PERFORMANCE PRACTICE: A DUAL CURRICULUM THAT BRIDGES THE CULTURAL DIVIDE Robert Lee Jefferson, DMA, 2010 Directed By: Chair, Linda Mabbs, School of Music This study explores methods in which the teaching of Gospel Music and Spirituals can be used as a conduit to bridge ethnic, cultural, and racial divides that are often found in American society. After working with various cultural and racial groups within religious and secular circles, the researcher has observed that individual cultures can have very distinct and opposite approaches to learning music, even in the United States, which some consider to be a cultural “melting pot.” More specifically, there are cultures that embrace the written or visual learning tradition, while others lean more heavily toward the aural or oral learning tradition. As a result, the perceived differences deriving from these two opposite learning traditions can often create both unconscious and conscious divisions among various cultural and ethnic groups. However, using teaching techniques and performance practices related to both Gospel Music and Spirituals (which use different although related learning approaches), one can create an opportunity to bridge the gap between the aural and visual learning traditions and can create an environment ripe for intra-cultural and cross-cultural communication. This dissertation studied two separate groups of individuals; one group from the visual cultural learning tradition and one group from the aural cultural learning tradition. Both groups were taught music through the process of either an aural or visual process (or in some cases, by a combination of both), and their behavioral responses were observed during rehearsals.

  • Lord Keep Me Day by Day”--The Caravans (1958) Added to the National Registry: 2021 Essay by Robert M
    “Lord Keep Me Day By Day”--The Caravans (1958) Added to the National Registry: 2021 Essay by Robert M. Marovich (guest post)* Early label “Lord Keep Me Day By Day,” first recorded in 1958 by the Caravans, has become one of the best-known hymns in the African American gospel music canon. The Caravans formed in the late 1940s as background singers for Robert Anderson after he left the Roberta Martin Singers to pursue a solo career. Initially known as Robert Anderson’s Good Shepherd Singers, the Caravans hailed from Chicago and Northwest Indiana, and included Elyse Yancey, Irma Gwynn, Nellie Grace Daniels, Ora Lee Hopkins, and Betty Jones. From 1949 to 1952, the ladies backed Anderson on recordings for the Chicago-based independent labels Miracle, Premium, and United. When Gwynn left to raise a family, Anderson replaced her with Albertina Walker and changed the group’s name to the Gospel Caravan. Under circumstances that remain unclear, the Gospel Caravan parted ways with Anderson during an April 1952 recording session for Leonard Allen and Lew Simpkins’ United Records. With studio time left on the clock, the ladies--rechristened as the Caravans--cut two sides on their own. Allen and Simpkins released the single on United’s sister label, States. With tight harmonies and a demonstrative delivery honed from years of church singing, the Caravans amassed a fan base that soon surpassed Anderson’s. With Walker as manager and James Cleveland as accompanist, the Caravans traveled nationally as part of multi-group package tours. Their States singles, 14 in total between 1952 and 1956, were radio favorites.
