In 2016, the musical world commemorates the centenary anniversary of Max Reger’s death. With the exception of opera, Reger composed in all musical genres and for various instrumentations. While he is frequently remembered for his organ music, it was his chamber music, which Reger concentrated on the longest- right up until his final composition, the Clarinet Quintet, Op. 146. To promote Reger’s music, it is necessary to bring young musicians in contact with it. Thus, there was born a unique project in cooperation between querstand label and University of Music and Theatre “Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy” Leipzig. 25 students have rehearsed chamber music works by Reger together with their internationally renowned teachers and recorded them at the University. The result is this release. This release provides an interesting insight into a part of Reger’s catalogue that can only rarely be heard today. Particularly notable is the inclusion of some rare cello works by Julius Klengel, a Reger colleague at the Leipzig conservatory and interpreter of Reger’s works, some of which were dedicated to him.
