Par REGER MAX. Die Drei Chören (The Three Choirs) op. 6 are hardly mentioned in the young Reger's correspondence. The only meaningful reference is Reger's announcement to his London publisher George Augener on August 1, 1892: 'I will send the choruses op. 6 ? which your son liked very much ? to you tomorrow morning [...]'. George Augener had spent five weeks from undergoing treatment in Wiesbaden …

From the larger collection of Men's Songs. A stunning melody simply and beautifully set. The sad poem speaks of a poor man who longs to lay his burdens down and make haste for the Creator's realm. A good contrast to other, more humorous works in the set. / Choeur Mixte Satb A Cappella

Homage to Anish Kapoor and his sculpture 'Marsyas'. Par PART ARVO. Arvo Pärt about Lamentate: 'Lamentate is music for piano solo and orchestra.
