Organists will be unable to resist this abridged transcription of Strauss's magnificent essay for symphonic brass. Robert Gower masterfully renders for a solo performer the rich harmonies and challenging cross-rhythms of the original score. Moreover, he offers a versatile reading playable on instruments both large and small: optional registration indications for a two-manual organ seek to reflect the antiphonal possibilities of the two brass choirs envisaged by Strauss. But with this piece the larger the instrument, the greater the potential for sonic spectacular!

As part of the Hannenheim Edition, the pianist Moritz Ernst also presents, in addition to the anthology of all the surviving piano sonatas of Arnold Schoenberg's master-class pupil, the edition of Hannenheim's two previously known organ works. The early Phantasieis imbued with a late Romantic harmony interspersed with chromaticisms, which reveal influences of Wagner and Strauss, but also of French organ romanticism. More typical of Hannenheim's personal style is the classical three-movement Sonata with its all-pervading serial technique; the last movement presents itself as an extensive passacaglia with 10 variations and is steeped in complex polyphony.
