Luther Decade 2008 - 2017
Well-known chorals and hymns stand as the foundation for German jazz instrumentalists, pianist Markus Burger and saxophonist Jan Von Klewitz, who blend modern improvisation with the art of interpreting baroque music while remaining true to the original musical integrity.
Burger and Von Klewitz were the winners of the coveted Bach Award from the City of Erfurt for their innovative interpretation of some of the legendary composer’s most notable body of work.
Spiritual Standards hold the distinguished honor to have been selected as the 2013 musical ambassadors for the ‘Luther Decade,’ a 10-year celebration sponsored by the German State of Saxony-Anhalt, that marks the 500th anniversary of the Lutheran Reformation.
