aus Schlichte Weisen. Par REGER MAX. The vocal œuvre of Max Reger is quite comprehensive but only few of his more than 300 works have become firmly established in the concert repertoire. One song, however, was to become a real big seller: 'Mariä Wiegenlied' in which the composer had woven the old Christmas carol Joseph, lieber Joseph mein. Because of its huge success, Max Reger recommended to his publisher an instrumentation which he actually realized later: This gem for piano was turned into an atmospheric piece of pastoral music for voice and chamber orchestra./ Répertoire / Soprano et Orchestre de Chambre

Op. 106. Par REGER MAX. Max Reger?s setting of Psalm 100 is one of the ?grand style? choral-symphonic works of the classical modern repertoire. Contrapuntal skill in the tradition of Bach combines with overwhelmingly powerful expressiveness, rich in contrasts. The full harmonic and stylistic breadth of the early 20th century sings out, not only in frenetic song, but also in the search for awareness in quieter passages. Reger?s opulence, tonal and contrapuntal almost throughout, finally culminates in a double fugue with an off-stage orchestra similar to the trumpets of Jericho over ?Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott?. The composer?s declared aim was: ?The psalm must go so brilliantly, that all will be simply ?bowled over?.? / Date parution : 2023-03-11/ Répertoire / SATB [Divisi] et Piano

Choralkantate. Par REGER MAX.
