Product Details


Product Description

Luther, a spearheading element of the Reformation, took this Renaissance tune of unknown origin for a Christmas choral. He set a text by Coelius Sedulius (middle 5th Century poet) to this tune. Luther's work is somewhere between modal and tonal. Section A exposits the tune and then repeats. It starts in Dorian and ends on the next key onte with a Picardy third. A modulation to a new key occurs with the help of a German augmented sixth chord. Section B the includes a descant by yours truly. There is no repeat but the piece ends on an Ionian tonic.
