This study shows the various compositional devices used in R. Nathaniel Dett’s short choral works. An analysis of each work with pertinent topical information is included for each song. The short choral works are catalogued. Additionally, a brief history of black folk music, its use during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and his many writings on black music provide context for his use of folk music in these works.
