American Negro Songs and Spirituals is an extensive collection of 250 songs that includes both religious and secular pieces. The book is compiled by John W. Work, a renowned African-American musicologist, and features a wide range of traditional songs that were sung by slaves and their descendants in the United States. The collection includes spirituals, work songs, blues, ballads, and other types of music that reflect the rich cultural heritage of African-Americans. The songs are presented with their original lyrics and musical notation, as well as historical context and background information. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in African-American music, history, and culture, and provides a unique insight into the lives and experiences of African-Americans throughout history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
