The year 2017 marked the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther’s release of his 95 Thesis, which is still regarded as the beginning of a movement that radically changed religious and cultural life in many parts of Europe. The present volume examines the music-historical dynamics of the Reformation in German-speaking lands. It investigates the influence of the movement on sonic environments and musical repertoires of the 16th and early 17th centuries. From different perspectives, the contributions show how institutional and liturgical reorganisation of spiritual life permanently altered early modern soundscapes. Furthermore, the papers examine how new Protestant musical practices emerged and interacted with traditions of the pre-Reformation period. Another focus is the role of music in the context of Reformation anniversaries of the last 500 years. Magnificent celebrations of the anniversaries of important milestones have been resounding events throughout the centuries, revealing specific contemporary perspectives on cultural issues and on the Reformation as a historical phenomenon.
