Known as the Black National Anthem, Jarrett Johnson along with Alvin Chea created and recorded a fabulous a cappella version and placed it on YouTube, which went viral and to their amazement was nominated for a Grammy. Next, Professor Michele Jenson from Azusa Pacific University told her friend, Jarrett, she wanted to create a choral version for her chamber choir. Choral conducting legend Andre Thomas heard it and wanted it in his new choral series with Gentry Publications. And that is the story of how this amazing rendition came to be a new publication for choirs everywhere.
