Meet Gospel
Gospel is a genre connected to a wider network of artists, recordings and musical traditions.
The clearest way to understand Gospel is to hear how its rhythm, timbre and performance language change across artists and recordings.
Begin with Reverend Gary Davis, Gladys Knight and the Saints Unified Voices and Blind Willie Johnson.
