March 15 is the 74th day of the year (75th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. 291 days remain until the end of the year. In the Roman calendar, March 15 was known as the Ides of March. 474 BC – Roman consul Gnaeus Manlius Vulso celebrates an ovation for concluding the war against Veii and securing a forty years' truce.

Vy Higginsen's mission is to save that music, through teenagers. Each Saturday she gathers her 46 carefully chosen African American kids between the ages of 13 and 19, in a Harlem brownstone to boisterously vibrate the glass with a blend that is the history, harmony and hope of Gospel. Gospel is the original American Soul music. Born of the deep, dismissed pain of slaves forbidden to talk, read or write, Higginsen says the first right of African Americans was to sing. Gospel survived as songs of jubilation and sorrow passed down through generations. Moses was overcome, he said, because his 15 year old cousin had been shot to death. Higginsen, visibly shaken, addressed the group, asking how many had had similar experiences.

In her introduction, Vy Higginsen traces gospel's roots: from the hymns and spirituals sung by slaves in the 19th century to the musical flavor of jazz and blues, and above all, the energy and spontaneity of group singing in church. The body of the book features 30 songs that have become standards in the gospel repertoire, in authentic original arrangements for piano. The songs are complemented by Brenda Joysmith's lavish original paintings that beautifully.
