Museums and Musicians Continue to Honor and Revitalize Worship Music

Come 2015, everyone inspired by gospel and worship music may very well be heading to the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC). Priceless songs and ephemera from the Golden Age of Gospel will be featured at the museum, thanks to the Smithsonian's collaboration with Baylor University's Black Gospel Music Restoration Project. Under the leadership of Prof. Bob Darden, a former Billboard gospel editor, the project has been acquiring, preserving, and cataloging music in various tape formats produced between the 1940s and 1980s.
