Nothing like African American Spirituals. I used to hear my grandmother humming (Over My Head) this spiritual and so many others in the kitchen as she prepared supper... man, those were simpler times, and this music transports me all the way back. I can smell black-eyed peas, collard greens, hot water cornbread, oxtails...RIP gramma & Auntie Jessye.
Wunderschööööön.
I love 💕 my evenings with Sista Battles. And not only is she endowed with this angelic voice; her accompanists are so profound and gifted respectively and I love ❤️ you
So beautiful
Reminds me of my youth❤🖤💚
BEAUTIFUL!!!!
I remember this performance as if it were yesterday … Kathleen Battle’s voice is amazing to say the least- but it was the woman that played that hop captured my soul!!! Sounded as if the heavens opened up and The Psalmist, King David himself, was playing that harp. Just spellbinding❤️
❤
Wow
So Beautiful ☆
Let's not forget the arranger, Evelyn Curenton.
Awesome
Maravilhoso!
My GOD. That flutist gave me chills!!
That's Hubert Laws: THE GREATEST FLAUTIST OF THE 20TH CENTURY!!!!
Hubert Laws a great musician
@@Playthellgb42 👏👏👏Amen! I never even knew there was such a thing as a bass flute until I heard him play it,I think on Aretha Franklin's Day Dreamin'.
SHE IS THE BEST !!!

Music straight from the throne of God. So beautiful it actually moves me beyond tears. This is the type of music that can drive out depression and oppressive thoughts. ..calms the soul.

OMG!!! For many years I searched this concert on internet this particular video, I never found. But a few weeks ago I write Kathleen Battle and then all this concert apeared. I almost died, indeed, my heart filled with Happynes and Love. 'Cuz before I became a Beyoncé fan, I was a huge, and I still am, a great fan of the great Diva, Miss Kathleen Battle. Her voice is loke an angel singing in my ears. So thank you AJ950060, God Bless You, U made my life better, all my lve and respect for you. ;D
I love HER!!!!
Love this. I gave away so many cd's (and one video) of this wonderful moving concert with Kathleen Battle and Jessye Norman. So beautiful
I wish I was one of the recipients and might have discovered beforehand!!! I stumbled by the grace of youtube, while listening to marian anderson.
kathleen was phenomenal in that..such emotion..such range, along with the flute and harp its hard not to cry
Is, not was.
First saw this entire concert when I was in high school 25yrs ago. Our Music teacher had us watch it & I must admit it the first time I’ve heard a lot of these spirituals. I’ve been in awe ever since cause I’m a complete music buff
Love this. Play it everyday. Voice of an angel
celestial...celestial and celestial...the soul feels like a thread of smoke floating,vanishing, disappearing in the sweetest void...
I never actually saw the concert until it appeared on you tube when I was growing up my mom had the cd and we listened to all the time. I love this
Found the CD of this at the library. I'm totally in awe!
Lovely!!!! So expressive and moves the soul, the instrumentalists, off the chain!!!!
I cried from start to finished.....
Little David didnt play on that harp

So who wrote the Psalms? King David.
Karen Vorbeck Williams with all due respect............shut up!

Amen. No other words. Just, amen and amen.
Excellent!!!! I love this!!!
4:40 Validation on the true nature of BEV or Ebonics. The value and the beauty of this expression should make all southern American proud of their agrarian roots. Bravo I would love to know what Dr. Ernie Smith thinks of this.
My, my, my. It's because of them I am now being used in this genre. Thank God for their beauty and their gifts.
absolutely amazing

Verdade. Desde a primeira vez em que a ouvi no programam Quem Tem Medo de Música Clássica do falecido Artur da Távola, me apaixonei pelo concerto, mas principalmente por essa canção.
Thanks for taking your time to write such a nice comment.
@Kimberley Kfab Wright it goes beyond emotions
Com estás canções parece que vou até lá no céu, e depois não quero mais voltar, sem falar na belíssima interpretação destas exímias cantoras ^ ^ ... Meus parabéns pela linda postagem =D
In English...With songs you seem to go there in the sky, and then not want to come back, not to mention the masterly interpretation of these beautiful singers ^ ^ ... Congratulations for the beautiful posting = D

Ida Muorie I'm dying to know. I used to play the flute and I need this man's CD in my life...the harpist too.
