Baroque,Christian,Classical,Contest,Festival,Sacred. 28 pages. Jubal's Lyre Music Publishers #6564681. Published by Jubal's Lyre Music Publishers (A0.918903). Here is a compelling setting of Martin Luther’s hymn A Mighty Fortress Is Our God (EIN FESTE BURG) by Johann Pachelbel (1653-1750). Originally composed for organ, it has been arranged for Brass Quartet, Brass Quintet, or Brass Choir with optional keyboard. Two harmonizations of the isometric version of the hymn are also provided. The first is a standard harmonization found in many hymnals. The second is based on the concluding Chorale of Cantata 80 by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). Including the music of both Bach and Pachelbel, this arrangement serves as an excellent introduction to the music of the Baroque era and the contributions of great Lutheran composers. It also provides opportunities to discuss the time of the Reformation. For worship the arrangement can be played alone or it can be used to accompany congregational singing. Additional arrangements are available for Woodwind Quintet, Strings, and Concert Band. For more music and information, visit www.jubalslyre.com/music.
