SPIRITUALS, GOSPEL & SOUTHERN GOSPEL
Christmas Spirituals,
Gospel and
Southern Gospel
Amen, Christmas, Amen (Traditional
Spiritual)—Traditional /arr. Phil and Lynne
Brower. The Classic, Gospel Standard, Amen,
along with additional lyrics, is now a Christmas
story spiritual in its entirety. A favorite, no matter
anyones musical preference, the words and
rhythms begin their magical lift immediately on
singer and audience alike. From the first soft,
slow-rocking Amen, both music and emotion
begin to grow. The groove gains momentum
and soon, unable to resist its infectious spirit,
the choir (perhaps audience?), begins to
clap and gently sway. The song promises to
be an experience savored by all, a memory
with wonder enough to last long after the
holiday season. For a fully orchestrated
accompaniment track or listening track, please
visit our website at greatstuffmusiccompany.
com. *Directors Note: Have choir add to the
wonder by designating one member start
the clap (in rhythm) on chorus (pg. 4); other
members notice, join in -one by one- until all are
clapping. Choir begins to softly sway - in sync
- on chorus (pg. 6) until end. (Bet the audience
will join you. Try it itll be a great time!).

Go, Tell It on the Mountain—arr. Adam Podd
& Matt Podd. Opening with a soulful solo in
a slow rubato style, this Christmas classic
really starts kicking with a disco gospel groove
that continues for most of the arrangement.
Gospel harmonies for the choir respond to
and support the solo throughout. The driving
piano accompaniment is fully notated but also
offers chord symbols so that you can add to
the instrumentation to make it really groove!
In an effort to continue the promotion and
proliferation of these, and other important forms
of musical expression rooted in Black culture,
we (Adam and Matt Podd) donate an industry-
standard "royalty" rate from the profits of any
public domain music we have arranged which
is attributed to non-white sources. This royalty
will go to various non-profit organizations
which support black musical arts and artists
- especially in those traditions from which we
have been most heavily influenced.
