Spirituale vel spirituale nigricolorum[1][2] est carmen religiosum, plerumque Christianum, ab Africanis in servitutem redactis in Civitatibus Foederatis compositum. Spiritualia primum erant traditio oralis quae fidem Christianam impertiebant cum labores servitutis describerent. Spiritualia, quamquam primum carmina monophonica sine adiunctione sonica, hodie per ordinationes chorales harmoniis traditas optime nota sunt. Hoc genus carminum, unice in Civitatibus Foederatis genitum, distinctum musicae genus nunc agnoscitur.[3]

Mariana Anderson spirituale nigricolorum canit.

Terminologia et origo

recensere

Vox spirituale, a cantico spirituali[4] deducta, a versu Epistulae ad Ephesios 5:19 in Bibliorum versione regis Iacobi derivatur, qui monet: "implemini Spiritu Sancto, loquentes vobismetipsis in psalmis, et hymnis, et canticis spiritualibus, cantantes et psallentes in cordibus vestris Domino." Slave Songs of the United States, primum spiritualium nigricolorum corpus, anno 1867 editum est.[5]

Georgius Pullen Jackson musicologus spiritual, vocabulum Anglicum, ad latius hymnorum vulgarium spatium extendit, ut in libro White Spirituals in the Southern Uplands (1938) legitur. Vocabulum autem saepe ad ordinationes sequentes in normalioribus stylis hymnodicis Europaeoamericanis adhibitum est, et carmina temporum post manumissionem nunc comprehendit.

Multa rhythmica et sonica spiritualium nigricolorum elementa a fontibus Africanis derivari possunt, sed spiritualia nigricolorum sunt forma musica quae vernacularis est, proprietas experientiae religiosae in Civitatibus Foederatis Africanorum et eorum posterorum. Ea sunt exitus interactionis musicae et religionis Africae cum musica et religione originis Europaeae. Praeterea, haec interactio solum in Civitatibus Foederatis facta est. Africani qui se ad Christianitatem in aliis mundi regionibus traduxerunt, etiam adeo in Mari Caribico et America Latina, hoc genus non evolverunt.[6]
