Christoph Schoener - Reger: Fantasia On The Chorale Op 27, Introduction, Passacaglia Und Fuge

Christoph Schoener performs on the organs of St. Michaelis Church in Hamburg in MDG's groundbreaking 2+2+2 format. The reproduction in 2+2+2 format positions the three organ units with breathtaking vividness in the living room and provides a precise acoustic picture of Hamburg's principal church.This time Max Reger is on the programme selected by Christoph Schoener with a surprising link to St. Michael's Church in Hamburg. Along with the early chorale fantasia on Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott and the mighty Introduction, Passacaglia, and Fugue from the last years of Reger's life, his selection from the Thirty Little Chorale Preludes combining absolute simplicity with demanding harmonies shows the grand master of complex and opulent organ music in a completely new and splendid light.
