My Nan Nan and Pop Pop sent me this video and it is amazing! I know it is a bit different than my usual posts, but I do post a video every now and then and I thought this one was well worth it!
Wintly Phillips is singing at Carnegie Hall and it is absolutely spectacular! He also talks a little bit about the history of the song and where the tune came from. I’ve been playing piano since the age of 6 and I never knew this! Please take a few minutes to watch this. My boys LOVED it and begged to see it again as soon as it finished!
Enjoy!

Wow, thanks for sharing this Bethanie. I love negro spirituals but this taught me more than I thought I knew. And of course, this guy can sing.
