Preferred term

Fisk Jubilee Singers  

Definition

  • The Fisk Jubilee Singers are the premier choral ensemble of African American musicians, who garnered international acclaim performing concertarranged versions of the spirituals—the great sacred songs of their ancestors—while raising funds to support Fisk University. In January of 1866, only 6 months after the American Civil War ended, Fisk University was founded in an abandoned army hospital barracks in Nashville, Tennessee.
