As a counterpart to the Organ Symphony No. 1 Pater Noster (ED 9937), the Organ Symphony No. 2 offers softer and more mysterious (Marian) sound worlds, sketching stages of Mary's life: an adoring Salve Regina grows from the mystic source, followed by Berceuse pour Marie as a lullaby of the Christmas events. The third movement Mater Dolorosa falls back on the well-known Gregorian sequence Stabat Mater, taking Mary's pain at the cross as its central theme. The finale treats the Ave Maris Stella in a crescendo from pp to ff in a positive and solemn manner, in memory of Mary's assumption. It is advisable to use an organ with at least three manuals.
Als Gegenstück zur Orgelsinfonie Nr.1 Pater Noster bietet die 2. Orgelsymphonie weichere und geheimnisvollere (eben marianische) Klangwelten an und skizziert Stationen aus Marias Lebensweg. Als Instrument empfiehlt sich eine Orgel mit mindestens drei Manualen.
