As well as 20 organ sonatas and seven collections of stand-alone organ pieces with opus numbers, Rheinberger composed a whole range of smaller works for organ methods or organ collections for his favorite instrument, mainly at the request of colleagues and friends.
The Fugue in F minor (JWV 3) on three themes shows the remarkable contrapuntal skill of a composer then aged just 14 (1853). Rheinberger dedicated it to his organ teacher Johann Georg Herzog, who remained a follower of the German Bach tradition.
Separate edition from Supplementary Volume 3 of the Rheinberger Complete Edition.
