This diverse group is comprised of approximately 45 members with varying professional backgrounds including students, teachers, professors, and professional musicians.  Roland Carter, Ruth S. Holmberg Professor of American Music in the Department of Music at The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga will conduct The Chattanooga Choral Society for the Preservation of African American Song.<\/p>\n<p>Distinguished composer, conductor, educator, and pianist, Carter\u2019s accomplishments as a leading figure in the choral arts include concerts with major choruses and orchestras in prestigious venues nationwide as well as lectures, workshops, and master classes. From presidential inaugurations to the smallest church, from scholarly presentations for national gatherings of musicians, educators, and preservationists to private coaching with individual singers, Carter lends his keen ear, bright mind, and talented hands to projects of every sort.<\/p>\n<p>The Chattanooga Choral Society for the Preservation of African American Song (CCSPAAS) traces its beginnings to informal gatherings of former students, church choir members, and friends of the late Edmonia Johnson Simmons. Simmons taught music at the Howard High School in Chattanooga for nearly four decades, and served as music director for several area churches. During holiday seasons, especially Christmas, Howard alumni would join current students and church choir members for concerts, caroling, and often informal sessions in her home.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2011\/05\/rolandcartersingers.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" data-attachment-id=\"5230\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2011\/05\/chattanooga-symposium-events\/rolandcartersingers\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2011\/05\/rolandcartersingers.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"500,375\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"rolandcartersingers\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2011\/05\/rolandcartersingers.jpg\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-5230\" src=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2011\/05\/rolandcartersingers-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\"style=\"max-width: 100%;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2011\/05\/rolandcartersingers-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2011\/05\/rolandcartersingers.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>In 1984, Dr. Lee Norris Mackey, a Simmons prot\u00e9g\u00e9, undertook a research project to investigate the programming performance practices, and recordings of African American spirituals by choirs of Historically Black Colleges, and Universities (HBCU\u2019s). Mackey found that there had been a significant decline in the performance of spirituals; thus the need, mission, and name of the organization were affirmed. Mackey sought and received funding from the Lyndhurst Foundation in Chattanooga for this project.

This uniquely American music is a product of the singing school movement that started in 18th-century New England.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;fasola&#8221; shaped-note method is a simplified approach to musical instruction in which four musical syllables, fa, sol, la, and mi, are designated by shapes whose position on the musical staff indicate their pitch. Three of the shapes are repeated to complete the scale (fa, sol, la, fa, sol, la, mi, fa).<\/p>\n<p>The Sand Mountain Sacred Harp Singers of the Henagar, Alabama, area have preserved the traditional art of Sacred Harp singing for more than 100 years. These singers recorded two songs that were included in the Cold Mountain movie soundtrack. Symposium participants will be invited to join in the singing. Singing will be led by David Ivey of Henagar, Alabama.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The following events are all free and open to the public.<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-wrap\"><span><a class=\"more-link button text\" href=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2011\/05\/chattanooga-symposium-events\/\">Continue Reading <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_slider":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_featurette":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[64],"tags":[4913],"class_list":{"0":"post-5220","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-news","7":"tag-music-department","8":"entry","9":"has-post-thumbnail"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Chattanooga Symposium Events | UTC News Archive: Jul 2007 - Oct 2025<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The following events are all free and open to the public.
