gospel music:

Gospel music (from English gospel; in Portuguese, "gospel")[1] is a type of music composed to express belief, individual or community, predominantly Christian.

Gospel music is written and performed for many reasons with a religious or even ceremonial motive, or as an entertainment product for the commercial market. However, the obligatory theme addressed in gospel music is praise, worship or thanks to God.

history:

Gospel is black Christian music in the United States of America. Perhaps one of the old styles of black music that really came close to gospel was the negro spiritual. The focus of this brief history is the music that flowed from the Afro-American church gave rise to various musical styles such as blues that influenced country music that constitute contemporary folk, rhythm and blues known as R&B, jazz, soul, which gave rise to rock and roll to hip hop, which gave rise to pop music, and inspired a cornucopia of modern choirs, artists from the contemporary R&B market and the current contemporary gospel (contemporary Christian music), in addition to other musical styles of the genre.

origin:

Thomas A. Dorsey (1899-1993), a successful songwriter like There Will Be Peace in the Valley, is considered by many to be the Father of Gospel Music. Early in his career he was a leading blues pianist, known alias Georgia Tom. He began writing gospel after he heard Charles A. Tindley (1851-1933) at a musicians' convention in Philadelphia, and later, abandoning the more aggressive of other songs, did not abandon, however, the jazz rhythm so similar to Tindley's. The Church initially disliked Dorsey's style and did not think it was appropriate for the sanctuary at the time. In 1994, after his death, the North American magazine, Score, published an article with the title: The Father of gospel music (in Portuguese, "O Pai da Música gospel"); in this article the magazine states that when Dorsey realized early in his gospel career that many people were fighting gospel music, he was "determined to carry the flag" for gospel, of course. So he did. He invested in 500 copies of his song, If you See My Savior (in Portuguese, "Se Você Ver o meu Salvador") and sent it to several churches in the country. It took almost three years for him to get more requests for the song and he almost returned to playing the blues. But Dorsey didn't give up and with help from other good musicians he went ahead.
