Leading Sacred Harp singers from Georgia and Alabama, led by Hugh McGraw, perform songs from the 1855 work 'The Social Harp,' a collection by John Gordon McCurry (a farmer and singing master from upper Georgia) which was neglected for over a century. This recording is one of the few in which any of the 19th century shape-note compositions can be heard in their original three-voice settings.
