Description
Memento mori! op. 22 (Ped.)
Edited by Jörg Strodthoff
This important cycle shows the Reger and Straube pupil at the zenith of his compositional work. A contemporary critic ranked Hoyer in the first row of organ composers today solely on the basis of the “‘Lament’ for the Dead, which is filled with shocking musical content”. Moderate, occasionally above; particularly suitable for concerts and musical devotions during Lent and for commemorating the dead. Contents: funeral procession, s lamentation, s dance of death s , transfiguration.
