  • Max Reger's most famous piece of organ music, Introduction and Passacaglia in D minor played on the organ of St Martin's Church in Dudelange.
    This is a piece I've known for a very long time, having started playing it as a teenager.
    I assume every young organist wants to learn this piece, right?! Let me know in the comments which piece YOU always wanted to learn as a youngster!
    This organ was sampled for Hauptwerk by ‪@Hauptwerkgek‬

    What a sonic and visual feast! SUPERB performance. Thanks Richard! I have always loved this, and your phrasing, tempo, registration is exactly how I love to hear this. (And I'm really eagerly anticipating getting Dudelange :D ) Your thumnail too is perfect for this - one of your more intense yet I daresay! Shivers!! (The very best kind!!!)

    That very first second of that video reminds me of when I used to pull stops and turn pages as a child. I absolutely love that sound of that rare occasion when all the stops were pulled out at once. It's the anticipation of the "fulla de blasta" that got my heart racing every time. :-)

    That was a really moving performance. The Dudelange organ sample set really does do justice to Reger's heavier organ compositions. Bravo Richard! This channel just keeps on getting more and more epic.

    A very fine performance of this difficult piece of music and a wise choice of the Organ for playing this masterpiece by Max Reger. I like the transparancy of this Performance. Many player fail at this transparancy while playing a piece of Max Reger. They are sinking in their own created monsters of soundwaves…

    "The chromatic clash of Reger..." as I read in a little book of organist's humour. This is a sublime piece, clearly inspired by Bach, and you have played it so beautifully. Two other pieces particularly inspired me as a young boy: the 2nd sonata in D minor, and the Fantasia on Hallelujah Gott zu loben played by Fernando Germani at Selby Abbey. There's also a very impressive rendering at St Paul's Cathedral.

    The comments referring to the dark and furiously angry Romanticism of Reger show a man who died very young in 1916 during the horrors of World War I, of a heart attack. I suspect he might have gone the way of "total chromaticism" in the same way as Arnold Schönberg, maybe not. But I do have a recording of a pre-atonal Schönberg string quartet (No. 1 in D minor), which is of a singular beauty. Reger was still more conservative in his harmony and counterpoint.

    I've been listening to a lot of Reger lately and I find myself thinking that his music is like a side of Pork in Chocolate Sauce. Not to disparage his music or defame his personhood, it's just that it probably is best to enjoy in small quantities. Do you think that all of Reger's organ music can be enjoyed in one sitting?

    • @PauloSilva252
      @PauloSilva252 Год назад +1

      It's all about being used to it in my opinion. After studying for 2/3 years high intensity organ repertoire, I could hear the complete Reger in one go. Same would probably go for Messaien, for instance

    A warm lovely VC (Virtual Church) as always! Also a lovely tribute to Elizabeth Bibbings aka EBibs!💔
    It's strange even though I never met Elizabeth/EBibs IRL and only knew her here on VC on BIS (Beauty In Sounds ), I will miss her dearly. She was always so kind and loving and had a great sense of humour! As Gerda said a seat will be empty!💔
    Rest in peace Elizabeth you will be missed and remembered!
