The performance of music in both the African community and African American community facilitated a very similar experience. In both videos you can see that the performances of music are community based and focused on being a collective. On the right is a traditional African performance and you can see that it heavily involves movement to go along with the music. While there are people playing on drums and animal skins in the back, there are also people (usually women) performing dances in front to go along with what is being portrayed and to add on to the self expression factor. In the video on the left, you can see African Americans performing spirituals, also as a collective. Although it is not clearly shown in this video, the sense of movement was also passed down from Africans to African Americans and the way of stomping, clapping, swaying, or snapping  is also an important part of African American spiritual performance. One thing that did change was that African Americans tended to put more of an emphasis on the usage of voice and words to spread a message and express themselves rather than focusing specifically just on the beats and dancing.
