Otto Nicolai (1810-1849) originally scoredA Mighty Fortressfor chorus, orchestra, and organ. Franz Liszt transcribed the entire piece for organ solo, and it was this version that was used for the present transcription for brass. Based on the famous charole tune by Martin Luther (1529), Nicolai adds tho distinctive melodies which he works out in marvelous contrapuntal style, and combines all three themes in a glorious Romantic setting.
