1969년 미국뿐만 아니라 전 세계적으로 화제를 불러일으켰던 음악축제 ′우드스탁′이 한창이던 여름날, 100마일 정도 떨어진 뉴욕시 외곽에서 ′할렘 컬쳐 페스티벌′이라는 음악 축제가 동시에 개최되었다. 스티비 원더, BB킹 등 그 당시 미국 음악계를 호령했던 뮤지션들의 공연과 30만이라는 어마어마한 관객들이 참여했던 이 페스티벌은 모두 녹화되었지만 단지 흑인들의 축제라는 이유로 그 어느 곳에서도 방영되지 못한 채 사장되고 말았다. 50년 후 을 통해 그 당시 생생했던 공연장면과 전국에서 몰려든 관객들의 환호와 갈채가 처음 공개된다. 마치 열광적인 공연을 본 것 같은 이 작품은 왜 그 당시 흑인 음악을 ′소울′이라고 불렀는지 여실히 보여준다.

REJOICE AND SHOUT traces the evolution of Gospel through its many musical styles – spirituals and early hymns, four-part harmony-based quartets, the integration of blues and swing into Gospel, the emergence of Soul, and the blending of Rap and Hip Hop elements. Gospel music also walked in step with the story of African-American culture – from slavery, hardscrabble rural existence and plantation work, the exodus to major cities, the Depression, World War II, to the civil rights movement and empowerment. REJOICE AND SHOUT connects the history of African-American culture with Gospel as it first impacted popular culture at large – and continues to do so. Years in the making, REJOICE AND SHOUT captures so much of what is special about this music and African-American Christianity – the sermonizing, the heartfelt testimonials, getting “slain in the spirit,” the hard hollerin’, and of course the inspiring music. Dare yourself not to be moved.
