Sehr, sehr durchsichtig! Endlich mal in einem Tempo, das dem unglaublichen harmonischen Reichtum dieses Werkes gerecht wird. Danke! Es macht Lust, es selber einzustudieren.

Einfach monumental! Einer der Gipfelpunkte der Orgelliteratur für mich.
Absolut fantastisch gespielt!

[@jasonclark901]

Excellent clear organ, which this music really needs. The organist takes the proper time to develop this powerful music; most other organists rush it.

[@Highinsight7]

I agree... both points...

[@ianhockleymusic]

As I get deeper and deeper into this piece I realise how beautiful it is and it has an almost chamber music like quality about it.

[@lucaogliari2912]

Wow, another Reger's monumental piece played perfectly !!

[@filburt-shellbach01x]

richtig toll

[@ralf-peter.schwarz]

Gewaltig beeindruckend! Das würde ich gerne Mal live dort hören!!!

[@14reger]

Once you understand that Reger's music is not to be played as fast as it would seem just because of demisemiquaver or hemidemisemiquaver notes, everything becomes clear!
And almost feasible!!!!!

Listening to this lengthy piece I very much got intrigued how you would record Julius Reubke's famous organ Sonata on the 94th Psalm. This piece is almost always badly recorded.

[@Highinsight7]

GREAT point... I'd LOVE to hear it with this instrument... and with the recording equipment in the exact same spot!

A good performance.

Zeer duidelijk en beheerst gespeeld. Nergens overdreven opgefokte tempi. Vanwege de complexiteit der muziek een goede opstelling, ook vanwege de kerkruimte. Hartelijk dank!
