Reger-Werkausgabe, Vol. II/6: Songs with orchestral accompaniment
Volume 6 of the series “Songs and Choral Works” features Max Reger’s works for solo voice and orchestra written between 1912 and 1915. In addition to the only two original compositions – An die Hoffnung, Op. 124, after a poem by Friedrich Hölderlin and Hymnus der Liebe, Op. 136, based on an excerpt from the epic Vom Geschlecht der Promethiden by Ludwig Jacobowski – this volume includes all of Reger’s orchestral versions of his most successful songs such as Des Kindes Gebet, Op. 76 (No. 22), Glückes genug, Op. 37 (No. 3), Das Dorf, Op. 97 (No. 1), Aeolsharfe, Op. 75 (No. 11), and Mariä Wiegenlied, Op. 76 (No. 52).
In January 2008 the Max-Reger-Institut (MRI) in Karlsruhe began publishing a scholarly-critical edition of the works of Reger (RWA), supported by the Mainz Academy of Sciences and Literature. As a Hybrid Edition, it is exploring new approaches in editorial techniques. The digital component for this volume is published in an online portal.

Der Umgang sowohl mit den DVDs als auch dem Internet-Portal ist einfach und erschließt sich beim Nutzen - einfache Links führen von Ort zu Ort, von Thema zu Thema. Diese Simplizität und die vom Carus-Verlag höchst professionell umgesetzten Druckbände machen die Ausgabe zu einem wahren Kleinod, das man gern zur Hand nimmt.
