Toccata Op.92 N.6 for Double Reed Quintet MP3

Double Reed Quintet Version: Featuring Oboes 1&2, English Horn, and Bassoons 1&2. Duration: 2 minutes and 15 seconds. This restless, skillfully executed, dual-natured, introverted-extroverted toccata is the precursor to the potent final fugue in the Suite for Organ Op.92 (1905) by Max Reger, a magnum opus of late Romanticism that foreshadows numerous trends of the Expressionism era. It includes the dissolution of tonal sense, exacerbating contrasts, and expansive swathes of pulsating timbral color. Additionally, it is imbued with pervasive memories and attitudes.
