Описание: The Muscogee Creek Hymn style is completely unique in American music. With melodic roots in American Indian, Anglo-Scot, and American-African traditions, and Christian lyrical content in the Muscogee (Creek) language, these hymns are both a celebration of Christian hope, and a meditational vehicle for the remembrance of those who have gone on. Some of the hymns also commemorate the removal the Muscogee people from their traditional homelands in Georgia and Alabama to Indian Territory in the 1830s. Many of the Creek churches in Oklahoma are named after old tribal towns that were the Muscogee people's homes before the forced removal by the United States government. Hutchee Chuppa Church, therefore, is named after the town that existed where Alabama is today. A horn is blown four, long times both about 15 minutes before the service to let people know church is about to start, and immediately before a service begins. The entire church grounds comes to a respectful and reverent halt when the horn is blown.

While the preaching, singing, and a lot of the talk around the church is in the Muscogee (Creek) Language, people of all tribes and races are welcome. As a result of that mix, Muscogee (Creek) Hymns are the true first form of American music that combines the Native American, African and Anglo traditions and makes them into something new. That could make it the first true "American" music. Naken cekerrete? Mvto!
