Sing, Fight, Weep, Pray
One of the world's most important festivals of Early Music takes place in the Dutch city of Utrecht every summer. World-class musicians, who specialize in the music of the Middle Ages, Renaissance and Baroque, gather in Utrecht to illustrate the magic of the music of the distant past. In 2017, the focus was on the music from the Reformation period. The documentary 'Sing, fight, cry, pray' serves as an introduction to this period, explaining why theologian Martin Luther attached his Ninety-five Theses to the door of a church in the German town of Wittenberg in 1517.
