• History: Gospel music is a form of Christian music that can be traced back to the early 17th century. As a major part of African American culture many gospel songs rely on repetition so that those who could not read could join in the worship.  As the style grew in popularity, work songs developed that created and strengthened bonds throughout the community.  It wasn't until the emancipation of slavery that Gospel music began being used by church choirs that we hear today.
