> Amazing Grace, by Wintley Phipps
> At Carnegie Hall, gospel singer Wintley Phipps delivers perhaps the  
> most powerful rendition of Amazing Grace ever recorded. He says, "A  
> lot of people don't realize that just about all Negro spirituals are  
> written on the black notes of the piano. Probably the most famous on  
> this slave scale was written by John Newton, who used to be the  
> captain of a slave ship, and many believe he heard this melody that  
> sounds very much like a West African sorrow chant. And it has a  
> haunting, haunting plaintive quality to it that reaches past your  
> arrogance, past your pride, and it speaks to that part of you that's  
> in bondage. And we feel it. We feel it. It's just one of the most  
> amazing melodies in all of human history." After sharing the  
> noteworthy history of the song, Mr. Phipps delivers a stirring  
> performance that brings the audience to its feet!
