This is not to deny that the Black gospel music of the
early twentieth century differed in important ways from the
slave spirituals. Whereas spirituals were created and
disseminated in folk fashion, gospel music was composed,
published, copyrighted, and sold by professionals.
Nevertheless, improvisation remained central to gospel music.
One has only to listen to the recorded repertoire of gospel
songs to realize that Black gospel singers rarely sang a song
precisely the same way twice and never according to its exact
musical notation. They performed what jazz musicians call
"head arrangements" proceeding from their own feelings and
from the way "the spirit" moved them at the time. This
improvisatory element was reflected in the manner in which
gospel music was published. (122 words)
