Best-Loved Negro Spirituals Complete Lyrics to 178 Songs,
By "kaye_m" (WILMINGTON, DELAWARE United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Best-Loved Negro Spirituals: Complete Lyrics to 178 Songs of Faith (Dover Books on Music) (Paperback)
As someone who is learning to play the piano, Nicole and Ronald Herder's compilation, Best-Loved Negro Spirituals Complete Lyrics to 178 Songs of Faith : Complete Lyrics to 178 Songs of Faith, was purchased with the expectation this volume would include both lyrics and musical arrangements. Without some type of musical accompaniment(cassette, CD, scores), having the lyrics is not very beneficial if one doesn't already know how the songs should be sung. The hope was that "Best Loved" would be more like the Gwendolyn Sims book, Ev'ry Time I Feel the Spirit, meaning: history, lyrics, and arrangements. "Best Loved" is more like a book of gospel poetry and was not returned for that reason. Perhaps I will happen-upon recordings or sheet music or other arrangements for some of the older, non-standards.
