About This Item
At long last our successful Reger Edition continues on it's way. The critics have been more than enthusiastic about the previous releases, and Musik & Theater even stated InchThese recordings number among the best currently available in the field of Reger's organ music.Inch This month we are releasing Vol. 7, again with two albums in the best SS, and this time featuring Reger's five easy-to-play Preludes and Fugues op. 56. Although the composer termed this composition Inchan organ work of small caliberInch in a letter to the Lauterbach & Kuhn, the critics reacted positively, and the organist and composer Robert Frenzel numbered it's pieces, which form anything but a secondary work, Inchamong the most poetic phenomena in the most recent organ literature.Inch And we absolutely have to agree with him. The generic combination of InchPrelude and FugueInch is frequently assigned to the realm of so-called absolute music, but Reger's op. 56 does not seem to belong to this world in which only the musical structure is of significance; instead, particularly the preludes, which mostly practice dynamic moderation - like many of the InchpiecesInch from op. 59 and other works - are distinguished by a pronounced poetic character.
