Mama, I Want to Sing
By Vy Higginsen with Tonya Bolden
A New York Public Library
Book for the Teen Age
$5.00 (plus $3.50 shipping and handling)
Doris Winter’s life centers around Mt. Calvary Church, where her father is the preacher and her mother sings in the choir. Before his death, Doris’s father urges her to follow her dream, which is to sing. She feels herself drawn towards it, calling it “worldly music.” Sneaking off to work as an usher at the famous Apollo Theater in Harlem, Doris is dazzled by the excitement, the gleam of the lights, and the glamorous stars.
Doris and three friends form a singing group and enter a talent contest at the Apollo. As her love of music collides with her loyalty to her mother, Doris must find the courage to live by her convictions that all music is glorious.
This Is My Song!

This book is a collection of some of the most moving gospel standards with authentic gospel arrangements (which are not in the hymnals). It is intended to document and preserve, and to encourage the current generation to understand and participate in, the rich cultural heritage of gospel. We trust it will help present and promote the energy and spirit of gospel music, which has touched so many thousands of people the world over.
