Intermezzo Op.92 N.3 for Double Reed Quintet MP3

This is a double reed quintet version featuring two oboes, an English horn, and two bassoons. The duration is 4 minutes and 32 seconds. This heartfelt and reminiscent Intermezzo is a follow-up to the initial abstract Fugue in the Suite for Organ Op.92, a 1905 masterpiece by Max Reger, a lauded figure of late Romanticism. The piece foreshadows many Expressionism trends, including the diminishing sense of tonality, intense contrasts, and vast areas of resonating timbral color. Additionally, it is suffused with memories and influences from the Baroque era.
