Reger: Trauerode op. 145 Nr. 1

[@teunvandesteeg7836]

Genius music. Reger is very close to the atonal music, but he remains the King of harmonic music. In a way, in this music we hear: 'it all has been completed'. It makes me very emotional to hear that final song.

Thanks for sharing this beautiful played piece from Max Reger.

Wahnsinn! Ich kannte diesen Satz bisher garnicht. Ich dachte immer op 135b sei sein letztes großes Orgelwerk gewesen. Vielen Dank! An manchen Stellen klingt es wie eine Vorahnung von Messiaenscher Klangmystik.

Wow, I thoroughly enjoyed this! What a great organist you are 😀

Now, I really don’t know what I was feeling.... but damn, I really felt it in this piece!! Brilliant stuff

[@nemianyamele2265]

Oh my goodness that ending 😌😔

Hello Mr. Schneider! Congratulations to this great interpretation of an underperformed gem. BTW You have confused Reger's dates with A. Guilmant's. Please change into 1873 - 1916! Thanks

Great Max Reger piece. Bit confusing you put Charles Marie Widor at the end.

Perhaps (IMO) Reger's most unappealing, unsettling and dissonant organ piece. But at least we have the "consoling" (?) Chorale at the conclusion. Thank you, nonetheless, for an excellent performance. 👍

Possibly my favorite of Reger's organ works.

Most likely Reger expressed his grief over the horror of the war victims during WW I.

[@bobh5087]

@@ullrichherz7053 Yes, I'm sure you must be right. It is a disturbing and even "angry" evocation.

[@WMAlbers1]

The harmonizations are actually quite interesting and evocative!

[@ulrichbill2256]

Trauerode sounds really quite modern, almost 12 tone until Reger finds home to the chorale "Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan" from 1674
