Descrição

Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott is the second movement of the work Millennial Suite: Hymns through the Ages. The work's six movements make imaginative use of popular hymns that are presented in chronological order.This is a setting of all four verses of Martin Luther's original hymn tune and text. Luther created both the melody and words when the Plague was spreading throughout the community in which he was living at the time. This musical setting employs the melody in its original rhythm which has a much more syncopated and energetic quality in comparison to the usual “smoothed-out” version that is most sung today.
