Singing the Gospel

Two gospel groups with very different styles, the Northern Kentucky Brotherhood, who sing a capella, and the Gospelway Bluegrass Singers, perform “I’ll Fly Away” and “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot” and discuss the purpose of gospel music and the influence of African-American culture on bluegrass and gospel music.

Classroom activities and discussion questions available on PBS LearningMedia.
