Vox Luminis
Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott
Five hundred years ago, Luther announced his theses in Wittenberg, sparking off the Reformation. Vox Luminis, now an established international name in the world of early music, has immersed itself in the German music of Luthers time and the period that followed, with works by composers including Heinrich Scheidemann, Michael Altenburg, Andreas Hammerschmidt, Paul Siefert, Michael Praetorius, Samuel Scheidt and Thomas Selle. The concert is constructed to reflect the Protestant ecclesiastical calendar, and includes the famous melody Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott: A Mighty Fortress Is Our God.
