Par REGER MAX. The seven chorale fantasias by Max Reger are among the most important of organ repertoire ? masterpieces blending chorale melody and programmatic music based on the text of the chorales. Published on the occasion of the composer's 150th birthday, this fundamentally revised Urtext edition, in two volumes, is edited by the internationally renowned organist and Leipzig professor of organ Martin Schmeding. As one of the most influential Reger interpreters, Schmeding not only includes the latest research, but also addresses the need for a contemporary interpretation of the chorale fantasias on modern organs. The edition includes all the original dynamic and agogic indications (including continuation lines to cresc., etc., which are missing in many modern editions), as well as all the original registration and manual indications. Martin Schmeding's new edition provides for the first time an original musical text that combines the requirements of a modern Urtext edition with the demands of a practical edition. / Date parution : 2023-08-12/ Recueil / Orgue

Par FRANCK CESAR. Although Franck's output for the organ was small, it was influential. This volume contains his best-known works for organ, including Six Pieces (Liszt ranked them with the masterpieces of Bach), Trois Pieces?including the well-known 'Piece Heroique'?and the Trois Chorals, perhaps Franck?s finest organ works. Reproduced directly from authoritative Durand edition in an oblong format designed for easy use at the keyboard./ Répertoire / Orgue
