Plot: It’s all but impossible to discuss
African-American culture or America’s musical heritage without talking
about gospel music. Just as the church was an integral part of the
African-American community from the time slaves were first brought to
the colonies, music played a crucial role in their spiritual experience
from the beginning, and as various forms of African and rural music
coalesced into gospel, gospel in turn became the foundation that later
spawned jazz, blues, soul, and even rap. Gospel music also became the
stepping stone into the spotlight for many of music’s most influential
artists, who in turn helped bring new ideas into the gospel sound,
keeping it fresh and innovative. Filmmaker Don McGlynn, who specializes
in documentaries about American music, chronicles the history of
African-American gospel music in the film Rejoice & Shout, which
reveals the true story of this powerful and influential musical form and
the people who helped to make it great. Rejoice & Shout received
its world premiere at the 2010 South by Southwest Film Festival.
