The Story of the Jubilee Singers: With Their Songs is a book written by J.B.T. Marsh. It tells the story of a group of African American students from Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee, who formed a choir in the late 1800s to raise money for their school. The choir, known as the Jubilee Singers, performed traditional African American spirituals and other songs throughout the United States and Europe, becoming a sensation and helping to raise awareness of the struggles faced by African Americans in the post-Civil War era. The book includes a history of the Jubilee Singers, as well as the lyrics and sheet music for many of their most famous songs. It is a fascinating account of an important piece of American musical and cultural history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
