The fourth volume of the section of the Reger Edition devoted to his organ works comprises, in chronological order, the chorale preludes composed between October 1893 and November 1914 in Wiesbaden, Weiden, Munich, Leipzig, and Meiningen. The composition of chorale preludes accompanied Reger throughout his entire career, even though they were composed primarily in the years from 1900 to 1902 and 1914 (Opus 135a). As almost no other composer at the turn of the century, he dedicated himself to the chorale prelude, composing around 100 works in this genre. Since January 2008, the first scholarly, critical edition of the works of Max Reger (RWA) is being produced at the Max-Reger-Institute, Karlsruhe. Its design as a hybrid edition breaks new ground in the methods of editorial practice. It comprises three areas of Reger's compositional output: Organ works, Lieder and choruses and, for the first time, Max Reger's arrangements of works by other composers. To begin the series, the first seven volumes have been published and contain the organ works, which have been eagerly awaited by many.

The Thirty Short Chorale Preludes op. 135a were first published in 1915 by N. Simrock-Verlag. Any trace of the engraver's manuscript owned by the publisher's family was lost in 1929 with the disbanding of the company. It only resurfaced in 2019 in the Archive of the Prague Conservatory. It has therefore been possible to use Reger's autograph as a second primary source in preparing this revision of the musical text of the Reger Complete Edition.

After moving to his position at the Dresdner Kreuzkantorat, which meant the end of his career as an organist, Homilius compiled 32 of his Chorale preludes for organ and offered them for sale to be disseminated as handwritten copies. For the first time this collection is published here in its entirety and in the original sequence of the preludes. Homilius shows that on the one hand he was inspired by Johann Sebastian Bach, while on the other he followed his own stylistic paths. Thus, for example, he employs extensively the traditional form of the chorale trio, but treads new territory in the harmonic realm. With this volume those seeking a rewarding enrichment of chorale-based organ music will find what they are looking for.

Brahms wrote eleven Organ Chorale Preludes for his opus 122 work. Jay Hilfiger's arrangement of Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen or Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming, for Brass Quartet (2 Trumpets in B-flat, 2 Trombones & Horn substitute parts for Trombone 1 and Trumpet 2) beautifully captures the intent of the composer.The piece is about 3-4 minutes in length, lyrical and expressive. Musicians have agreed that this is a sublime work of true genius. Traditionally this chorale is performed at Christmas in both Catholic and Protestant traditions, but is beautiful at any time of the year.

Composer John Harbison writes: “Rubies is a version of Thelonious Monk's Ruby, My Dear, which he composed while still in his teens. When I was invited by the Seattle Symphony to make a short piece reflecting my first musical passions, my thoughts were of Bach and Monk. Since I had recently made some Bach-like chorale preludes, I chose to make a version of Monk's tune, first in a chamber-musical, contrapuntal manner, then in the grand orchestral style I had always heard lurking there.†Dur: 5:30.

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 posthumously compiled collection of ten smaller organ pieces WoO 25 brings together a series of interesting pieces from the years 1854 to 1896. It includes one of just two chorale settings by Rheinberger, the prelude on “Wenn ich einmal soll scheidenâ€. With short trios, preludes and fugues in different keys, the collection is particularly suitable for use in worship, but also for teaching. Separate edition from Supplementary Volume 3 of the Rheinberger Complete Edition
