- The Fisk Jubilee Singers are considered a landmark of Tennessee's artistic heritage and are instrumental in preserving the musical tradition known today as Negro spirituals. In a program that celebrates gospel music-from contemporary rising stars to established traditional artists-American gospel artists come together to perform on one stage. Join the Fisk Jubilee Singers and other gospel artists participating in the Kennedy Center's Gospel Across America Celebration as they share this rich culture with students during a performance of both contemporary and traditional songs that bring together the past and the present (recorded in 2010 at The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC).

I am so proud to be a Fisk Alumnae and the daughter on one also. I grew and matured on this music. It is still wonderful. It still makes me cry. So beautiful.

I don't know how I stumbled upon this but MAN is it getting me through finals week! Love it
My first introduction to the jubilee Fisk singers. They are outstanding. It was very educational. Just brilliant singing!
I LOVE these talented Black singers. BEAUTIFUL.
I enjoyed such angelic voices❤
Many Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) have choruses like this. The Fisk University Jubilee Singers just happen to be the first, and, therefor, the most famous. I have been blessed to hear two other HBCU choirs in person, such as the Aolians of Oakwood University in Huntsville, AL and the Meistersingers of Tennessee State University which is located in Nashville. It has been almost a couple of decades since I heard those talented the talented artists who comprised the chorus, but I still remember their beautiful God-inspired"slave" songs. Excellent!!👏👏💖💖💖👍👍Btw, I think is is so SAD😒😒😢😢 that currently probably many black Americans(young AND not so young) aren't aware of this RICH and BEAUTIFUL history connected to black American history. This is something to be PROUD OF and to above all, CHERISH. Sigh. Thanks for providing this performance!😍😍😀😀👍👍
1st off, the very reason most HBCUs have choruses like this is because of the huge success of the original 9 and 11 Jubilee Singers. 2nd, I'd like you to keep your eyes and ears open for events surrounding the 150th Anniversary of the Fisk Jubilee Singers coming in 2021. I/we hope to have some of the great HBCU choruses like the Aeolians of Oakwood and Morgan State's amazing group along with, of course, our neighbors from down the street TSU's Meistersingers. It promises to be a grand celebration of American music since Fisk is the "Birthplace of American Music"!
Mr. Cooper: First of all, I am a very, very PROUD graduate of your neighboring HBCU, TSU, and I grew up several blocks from the illustrious Fisk University, so I am very familiar with this wonderful heritage. Keep up the good work, and I hope to attend the glorious 150th Anniversary of the Fisk Jubilee Singers. 👍👍😍😍❤❤
elaine smith I never understood why folks feel the need to preach/ lecture when making a comment. There are probably more people aware of this music than you realize. Just enjoy the music and share the link if you feel led to do so. The dramatic, self righteous sighs are unnecessary.
@@healmyroots This is still America, and I still have something called FREE SPEECH that is guaranteed (at least for now) in our Constitution. Btw, if you don't like/care/irritated by my comments, IGNORE them. It's as simple as that. 🤦♀️👀
@@elainesmith7512 Ms. Smith, for the record, I don't think your comments were preachy, I thought they were on point. As you said so many HBCUs have wonderful choruses with long storied histories. Sometimes I think we don't do enough to promote our excellence. Let's not hide our light!
Beautiful black people...God bless you all !
Ny dad is in heaven, but uf he was here,,hw would have loved this,,,such beautifully well trained voices
I enjoy the spirituals
These Fisk singers are amazing. Thank you for allowing us to listen.
Knowledge not shared is a waste something can become nothing but nothing can ever become something kindness is the way blessings to you and yours
If there was just one experience to remind me of home it's the Fisk Jubilee Singers...and my Granny's Sunday Dinners! That's two things!!
beautiful memories for sure !
So amazing to see this next generation carrying the torch.
Yes! I'm Gonna' Sing 'Til My Jesus Come !
❤ Beautiful!
❤
Watchin this in pride during Black History Month 2024. Celebrating Black History every day!
Yes indeed....without question.
Thank you for preserving & performing these historical treasures.
Я послушал это покурив марихуаны, и честно говоря, восторгаюсь подобными песнями! Отлично, что афроамериканцы добились самоутверждения в мире! Быть добру!
Awesome! To God be the Glory!
i was told to study this for my GSCE. the man talking about the music is really helping
Only my Jesus knows the trouble I seen. Thank you Lord. †
Magnificent. Glory to God in the highest. Merry Christmas to everyone listening❤
Absolutely wonderful!!! Thank you all.
Glad you enjoyed it!
beautiful, heart-warming and uplifting. Wonderful!
The singers gave performances at Stanford University in the 90s.
This is superb, but I sure wish they could switch now and then to a camera on the audience, especially during the participation songs..
Brilliant ! I really dont know why my eyes are tearing up .
I knew they had someone from Atlanta (Lithonia). It’s an incubator for so many Blacks. They sound great!
YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! Love Negro Spirituals.
I love this!!!!
Beautiful!
i learned them from a book thank you.
I listened to this after smoking marijuana, and honestly, I admire songs like this! It's great that African Americans have achieved self-affirmation in the world! Be kind!
OUTSTANDING‼️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
So truly fantastic! Deeply moved by your music!
Thanks for sharing, Hope! This is a brilliant performance.

Amazing
A superb, heartwarming experience, and I loved hearing who the students are, where they are from, and what they are majoring in: a lovely, talented, and charming group of singers. Greetings and thanks from M. Pleasant, SC.
PHENOMENAL !!!!
I like it very much
A wonderful time indeed!
32:40 Introductions of majors and names

Rock My Soul In The Bosom Of Abraham! †
Great job, congratulations.
So beautiful
👍🏻✌🏻
Rip Dr Kwame 😞
My mother’s ALMA MATER!!! I went to Hampton U though #hbculove
BEAUTIFUL! Praise TMH :-) Does anyone know where I can find the song: 'DO UNTO OTHERS' by Fisk Jubilee Singers ?
It was featured in the movie, 'The Harder They Fall' (2021)
maybe a search of the music from the movie may help you find the song itself, good luck many Blessings upon us all during the times to come !
Closed captions has no lyrics 🙁
Pj!!!
Pj? Pajamas?
Lance Baker no I think they mean Park Johnson lol. I don’t remember them practicing in there 🤔.
I was expecting “Keep Your Hand On The Plough” 😫
This man sounds Nigerian!
He’s originally from Ghana.
hence the problem with their interpretation.
Why isn' t it written anywhere that "The Fisk Jubilee Singers" is another and pionnier legitimate band of great singers from the 19th century ? So, far before this one ... When people don' t want to know their own history, when they don' t want to reveal their best historical leaders , and most of all when they hide it though it is their duty, what can we expect from them ? two problems. The original name should never be used, stolen without an additional word that explains the origins ... second problem, they should never perform without thank and recognize the original band who made the most incredible work in that time, far above a good, but simple sugar coated music performance !
I learned about the Jubilee Singers from the PBS documentary. The group in this video is clearly technically very talented, BUT I still didn't like them. It's very subjective, of course, but with the singers in the TV program you could feel their joy, and could understand how people would travel for miles to share that feeling. Every singer here sounded individually very good, but you felt they were doing a job, not experiencing genuinely spiritual feelings. Maybe they were just nervous, performing at the KenCen.
Yea, subjective..I don't know how much you got from the PBS special but the Fisk Jubilee Singers have performed All over the WORLD! Believe you me, the Kennedy Center didn't phase these kids one bit. I think the Jubilees did a fantastic job on this program.
I came her wanting to listen to some beautiful singing, which we do get eventually------but there's a whole lot of talking.
Flimsy, vanilla, without emotion, sounding as if on automatic pilot. They're singing the notes fine, but not the music.
I’m not particularly impressed with the basses!
