Background notes
Archive material and source history
Moses Hogan was an American composer and arranger who worked primarily with spirituals and gospel music. He was born in 1957 in New Haven, Connecticut. His arrangements of traditional songs like 'The Battle of Jericho' and 'There Is a Balm In Gilead' became widely performed by choirs.
He led an ensemble called The Moses Hogan Singers, which recorded several albums including one titled 'The Battle of Jericho' in 1990. The group performed his arrangements at venues like Carnegie Hall. Some listeners questioned his modern approaches to spirituals, but Hogan maintained they helped the music reach contemporary audiences.
His work appeared on projects like the soundtrack for the film 'The Color Purple.' Hogan's arrangements remain part of the choral repertoire, particularly in gospel and sacred music settings.
