The author argues that Lutheran Church music is distinct from both secular and non-Lutheran sacred music, due to its adherence to objective principles and emphasis on the faith of the Church rather than on the subjective feelings of individuals. The author traces the development of Lutheran Church music from its origins in the plain melodies and liturgical treasures of the early Church to its more complex and sophisticated forms in the Baroque and later periods. Along the way, he explores the influence of various historical and theological factors on the shape and direction of Lutheran Church music. Ultimately, the book seeks to demonstrate the unique and valuable contribution that Lutheran Church music has made to the broader history of Christian music and worship.
