Spirituals have become part of our culture but their origin and purpose are not widely understood. Some show influence from Middle Eastern music which was part of the local culture in East Africa which was a source of slaves and others from the traditional music of West Africa which was a closer source of slaves. Here are ten of the best-known spirituals, e.g., "Swing Low Sweet Chariot", "Going Down to the River to Pray", and "Go Down Moses". This is a special supplement to Spirituals for Brass Quintets for trumpet and French horn players who do not transpose.
