Spiritual Jazz is a genre of jazz music that emerged in the late 1950s and early 1960s. It is characterized by its use of spiritual and religious themes, often expressed through improvisation and modal jazz. It is often associated with the Civil Rights Movement and the Black Arts Movement, and is often seen as a form of protest music. It is heavily influenced by gospel music, and often features vocalists singing spirituals or hymns. It is often seen as a bridge between traditional jazz and more modern forms of jazz, such as free jazz and fusion.
