"I was very pleased and excited about this work. After seeing the dance company perform "Revelations", I found it powerful and cathardic. The music is now apart of my collection and I shall include it in the art of pedadogy. This work is very important to understanding the history of the African American progression in America with Negro Spirituals being parallel. Not enough can be said about this work."
Amazing music, amazing dance.

"Ok. so they're spirituals. It's religious music. But I garauntee you'll be moving to the beat before you get "Wash My Soul". When you get to that song, you can't help but be up and moving. Compiled by the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theare for their ballet "Revelations", this combines the best presentations of the music. And if you think the music is great, go see Alvin Ailey."
