Gospel music
Gospel music has its roots in the spirituals sung by slaves in the 1700s. These spirituals were Christian hymns and original compositions passed down orally since few slaves could write. Singing provided resistance to the difficulties of slavery and hope of a better afterlife. In the 1930s, Thomas Dorsey popularized the term "gospel music" to describe this style. Gospel music uses choirs and harmony to provide a Christian alternative to secular music, usually featuring a soloist and responsive choir. Songs are typically slow or moderate tempo, though some are very fast "shouts." Gospel spread the message of deliverance and hope through music.

final thesis draft 5-2-16
This document discusses John Philip Sousa's march "The Stars and Stripes Forever" and how its identity has changed over the 20th century. Originally composed in 1897, Sousa intended it to stir feelings of American patriotism through its orchestration and lyrics. The piece became enormously popular when performed by Sousa's band. In the early 20th century, it came to represent American national pride and unity. However, as the piece was performed in new historical contexts over the century, its meaning transformed and the intense patriotic feelings Sousa envisioned became less prominent.
