Orgelwerke Teil 21 (Aus: Monologe Op.63: Nr.1/2 Präludium Und Fuge - Nr.11 Canon - Nr.12 Scherzo | Aus: 52 Choralvorspiele Op. 67 | Aus: Monologe Op. 63: Nr.4 Cappriccio)

This release is part of a comprehensive survey of Max Reger’s organ works recorded by Wolfgang Rübsam for the German label Da Camera Magna. Produced during the 1970s, the series sought to document the complete organ output of the prolific late-Romantic composer, whose complex and dense polyphonic style requires significant technical facility and a profound understanding of his specific structural demands. The project was conceived during a period of renewed academic interest in Reger's legacy, aiming to provide definitive interpretations on instruments well-suited to the composer’s tonal language.

Wolfgang Rübsam, noted for his rigorous approach to the repertoire, was chosen to interpret these challenging scores. His work on the Da Camera Magna series is characterized by a focus on clarity and precise articulation, intended to disentangle the intricate layering of Reger’s counterpoint. While Reger’s music is often perceived as formidable, these recordings were received by critics as a vital resource for scholars and enthusiasts, helping to stabilize the composer's standing within the twentieth-century organ canon through methodical, high-fidelity documentation.
