Martin Luther (1483-1546), founder of the Protestant Reformation and the Lutheran Church, once wrote: "Next to the word of God, the noble art of music is the greatest treasure in the world." Thus, music seems an entirely fitting way to celebrate his life. And, as the 500th anniversary of the Lutheran Reformation was being observed the world over in 2017, this work came into being, its seven scenes recalling seven singularly significant events in Luther's dramatic and world-changing life. The score incorporates both music original to this work and adaptations of music from Luther's own time, including one of his own best-known and most beloved hymns, "A Mighty Fortress is our God." The work was premiered in 2017 by Brass Reflections in Lynnwood, Washington. It was recorded a year later by Lyric Brass of Pacific Lutheran University on the album "Luther 501," available on Spotify. Duration approximately 29 minutes.
