Max Reger’s Twelve Pieces, Op. 80, explore a wide-ranging selection of short musical forms suitable for performance as a complete suite in recital or as individual items within the celebration of the Christian liturgy. Numbers 7 and 8 are performed on Volume 8 (8.570455) in this Naxos series of Reger’s organ works. His Thirteen Chorale Preludes, Op. 79b, include settings of famous hymn tunes such as Ein Feste Burg ist unser Gott, Mit Fried und Freud, Nun danket alle Gott and Auferstehn. Hans-Jürgen Kaiser plays the magnificent 72-stop, four-manual Rieger-Sauer Organ in Fulda Cathedral, which may also be heard on other volumes in this important series.
