FISK JUBILEE SINGERS

"The singers were performing to a tough crowd, as restive as any high school assembly. But by the end of the concert the audience was clapping along, and it followed the driving optimism of 'Ride the Chariot' with a standing ovation. For the Fisk Jubilee Singers, it was one more successful mission."—New York Times on the Fisk Jubilee Singers' Apollo Theater performance in 2000

This award-winning choir of young men and women from Nashville, Tennessee, preserves the distinctly American tradition of singing "slave songs," known today as spirituals.
