Max Reger
Organ Works without Opus Number
This volume brings together central works to Reger’s output for the organ, such as the popular “Introduction and Passacaglia” in d minor, which Reger wrote as a benefit-work to assist towards the rebuilding of the organ of the parish church of Kronberg in Taunus and which is also within the reach of ambitious amateur organists. In addition the collection offers a series of separate organ pieces – preludes, fugues, and so on – along with chorale preludes. Some rarities are to be discovered among these works, in particular a Fugue in c minor that for a long time remained unknown: this short and easy-to-play work was recently discovered in an old anthology which is out of print. We now present it for the first time in a critical edition, thus once again making it available to Reger enthusiasts.

Hier kann man den unbekannten Reger mit einigen vernachlässigten Werken kennenlernen; zusammengetragen aus verstreuten und versteckten Quellen, aus Alben und Zeitschriftenbeilagen. (...) Das überschaubare, großzügige Notenbild im Querformat kommt Regers Schreibstil mit seinen ausführlichen Interpretationsangaben enorm entgegen.
nmz, 2014Klare Empfehlung.
Kirchenmusik im Bistum Trier, 2014Editorisch hochkomplex aufgrund der Vielzahl an Vortragsbezeichnungen und der wegen eines fehlenden Autographs letztlich unbefriedigenden Quellenlage, hat der Herausgeber seine heikle Aufgabe mit Augenmaß und praktischem Sachverstand gelöst und im Kritischen Bericht nachvollziehbar dargelegt. … Editorisch komplett wird die auch drucktechnisch tadellose Ausgabe durch ein Vorwort, das die Entstehungsgeschichte jedes Werkes darlegt, und einen kritischen Bericht. Fazit: eine lohnende Ergänzung der Werke Regers.
Musica Sacra, 2006Le tout est imprimé dans un format à l’italienne, permettant une grave plus large et donc plus lisible que celle de la concurrence, y compris les anciennes versions également à l’italienne! Merci pour la traduction (GB, F) des quatre pages de préface, retraçant l’histoire individuelle des compositions.
Magazine Orgue, 2006It is a real pleasure to welcome this volume, which gathers together all Reger’s organ pieces without opus numbers that fall outside the main categories of his works … It is good to see Reger’s careful and methodical manuscript used as the starting point, rather than Straube’s elaboration, and translated into clear and spacious type. Editorial decisions are discussed in detail in the closing notes, and a history of each piece is given in three languages in the Foreword. Would that all editions showed this level of scholarly commitment – and moderately priced too!
