This is a piece of history! Hall Johnson, the son and grandson of slaves, came to national prominence in Hollywood with the Hall Johnson Choir performing/singing in feature films including The Green Pastures (1936), Dimples (1936), Meet John Doe (1941), and Walt Disney's Song of the South (1946). George Lynn, director of the Westminster Choir College, commissioned Johnson's arrangement of “Star Spangled Banner” for publication during the Civil Rights Era, and this is that original passionate arrangement, originally sung by the Hall Johnson Choir.
