One of the Ozarks distinctive musical traditions is the southern gospel singing-school, which originated on the American frontier in the early nineteenth century when gospel music became very popular with early settlers. Keeping that tradition alive, The Brockwell Gospel Music School in Brockwell Arkansas has been teaching gospel singing techniques using the shape-note music system since 1947.
