The “Noble Art” of Music
Chad Fothergill, Temple University [email protected]
ELCA Grace Gathering | New Orleans, LA | 12 August 2016
Summary
An able musician in his own right, Luther understood the power of music to nourish and teach God’s children
of all ages and abilities. Pastors and musicians in his circle and throughout following generations penned texts
and tunes that were rooted in scripture, yet spoke to the diverse experiences of people who sang them at home,
school, and worship. This workshop took a closer look at how music—from Luther’s hymns to global
song—might be incorporated into different congregational contexts in both 2017 and beyond. Using
suggestions in the Reformation 500 Sourcebook as a starting place, additional ideas were offered for seasons and
festivals of the church year, home devotions, and special services such as “The Church’s Journey in Art and
Song” that premiered at the 2015 Worship Jubilee.
Objectives for the Anniversary Year
Consider materials and resources in your context for:
Sundays, seasons, and festivals of the church year Occasions in the congregation’s life Educational offerings Commemorative events such as hymn festivals
Refresh or renew the theology of music in your context by thinking about:
How pastors and musicians of Luther’s time collaborated together How they responded to rapidly changing cultural, political, and economic contexts How they navigated tensions between participation and performance, sacred and secular The ecumenical roots of our worship patterns and materials

Luther’s Liturgical Music and Catechism Hymns
THE GERMAN MASS
Planning Considerations 1. Melodies need careful introduction and teaching 2. Pattern should be used for several weeks in a row, e.g. Reformation Sunday to
Christ the King 3. Can be brought back on festival Sundays such as Transfiguration, The Holy
Trinity, and again at Reformation 4. Be sure to indicate in your bulletin the difference between “ELW, p. ___” and
“ELW, Hymn ___” when using chorales as liturgy settings 5. Because the leadership is keyboard-centric and because these chorales are
longer, balance the service with shorter songs that can be led with other instruments, percussion, or be sung a cappella
Sample Bulletin or Newsletter Description Guided by his desire to create a body of vernacular hymns for worship and teaching,
Luther worked with his musical colleagues to create congregational versions of the standard Mass texts that, in the centuries before the Reformation, had been sung to the people by the choir. In compiling his German Mass , Luther took several existing texts and plainsong melodies and fashioned them into chorales that were then sung by the people. Over time and in many locations, a number of Luther’s “catechism chorales” became fixtures in the Sunday service as well.
As part of our Reformation anniversary observance, we will sing the hymns of the German Mass in English as our liturgy setting. The texts and music represent the work of prophets, evangelists, authors, composers, translators, and arrangers across thousands of years! They include a Trinitarian trope , or expansion, of the Kyrie (ELW 409) from a Latin plainsong; a Gloria (ELW 410) fashioned by a sixteenth-century Lutheran composer from the melody of a tenth-century Easter plainsong; Luther’s versification of the Nicene Creed (ELW 411); Luther’s “German Sanctus” (ELW 868) which joins the “Holy, holy, holy” and other passages from the prophet Isaiah’s vision in the temple with music from an eleventh-century plainsong; and, finally, a Reformation-era Agnus Dei (ELW 196) that was probably written by Luther’s friend, Johannes Bugenhagen, for a congregation at Braunschweig.

Chant Formulas In addition to recommending certain chorales and when they could be sung, Luther’s preface to the German Mass also included formulae for the chanting of introits, the Kyrie, prayers, Scripture readings, and the Words of Institution.
14
CATECHISM HYMNS
Planning Considerations 1. May be used with three portions of the Reformation 500 Sourcebook : “A Midweek
Lenten Series Based on Luther’s Small Catechism” (77–82); “Martin Luther, The Catechism, and Music” (113–120); and “Living Out the Small Catechism” (169–172)
2. May be paired with any number of musical or instrumental settings such as those by J. S. Bach in the Clavierübung III of 1739

What do the musical conventions of Luther’s time teach us about assembly song in our own time?
Rhythm and tactus A cappella singing Singing in alternatim : “The verses of the respective Latin chant were sung in alternation with the stanzas of its vernacular partner, the former being sung by the choir, the latter by the congregation.”

The “noble art” of music transcends time, place, creed, and label, giving voice to our common story—one faith, one baptism, one God—in ways that speak to local contexts and dialects An honest musical commemoration of the Reformation—both in 2017 and beyond—is one that:
