NEGRO FOLK.SONGS

NEGRO FOLK SONGS
Many countries have their so-callcd
folks songs, but our southern states,
only, are rich in negro folk-songs.
And just what is a folk-song? 1t is
a song current among the common
life with its interests and enthusi-
asms. handed down by word of mouth
from generation to generation.
In 1919 when the Dutch trading
vessel landed at jamestown. Va.
| bringing the first little company of
African slaves. all they brought with
them that they could call their own
were their melod;ous voices and their
plaintive folk songs.
In recent years. an effort has been
made to collect the best of these
songs and to revive an interest in
singing them in the negro schools OF
the South among the younger genera
ton. Hampton Institute is a musical
center. and Booker T. Washir gtOn
and Robert r. Motion, principals Of
| Tuskecge Institute in Alabama, i'm
pressed upon the minds of their 1900
students that they should have prop
err respect for their native songs.
Among those who have helped to
collect these negro folk songs and
cause their recognition, should be
mentioned, Prof. John Wesley Work,
a professor a. Fisk University. who
issued the book, The Folk Songs Of
the Afro American Negro" This
book describes his ~escarch work
through the Soutl
Some of the negro songs that were
an outgrowth Of the Civil War. such
as: Dixie "Suwunee River" odd
Black Joe" My Old Kentucky
Home" are not negro folk songs, for
they were written by white mon,
though they convey the negro senti-
ment. The author of Dixie" was
D. D. Emmett, a northcrner. The
other three songs above mentioned
were by stephen Collins Foster, an
American. a native of Pennsylvania,
and famous composer and song
writer.
1t is said that Of the 500 or more
negro folk-songs collected. not one
shows a revengeful spirit but only
patient resignation.
The Fisk Jubilee Singers are now
gladly welcomed on their annual tour.
, for they long ago established their
reputation. They made their debut,
so to speak in the fall of 1871 in
Oberlin, O.. under Prof. George
White as director.
a council of Congregational
churches was il: session. Permission
was asked by Prof. White for his
singers to be allowed 10 sing. While
the august individuals in the audi
ence We're weigh and considering
the matter, as to whethe~ or not it
would be quite proper for colored
singers to sing before a white con-
,gregation in a white church. there
was heard from a rear gallery the
beautiful anthem. Steal Away to Je-
sus." The all-important question
was decided, the Fisk Singers were
welcome visitors.
Henry Ward Beecher. pastor in
Brooklyn. y. Y, happened to be pres
ent and he arose and extended to the
Fisk Singers a cordial invitation to
come North and sing before his aris-
tocratic Pensioners. It will be re-
membered that his sister, Harriet
Beecher Stowe. was the author of
Uncle Toms Cabin"
Well, the band Of Fisk Singers,
composed OF both men and women,
started north and the New York dali
ly newspapers couldn't say enough in
their praise. The singers toured Am
erica and after they had toured Am
erica they toured Europe. Their en-
