Much respected in his lifetime, the German composer and organist Joseph Rheinberger is chiefly remembered for his organ music. He showed phenomenal early ability and was trained at the Munich Conservatory, where he was later employed as a professor until his death in 1901. His pupils in Munich included Humperdinck, Wolf-Ferrari and the great conductor Furtwängler.
"The alternative Naxos partnership of Line Most and Marie Zeiner chooses the four-movement Suite for Violin and Organ for their coupling, which is equally agreeable. They seek a rather larger scale, with a more resonant Danish organ. Yet again the balance is adroitly managed and the performances are just as persuasive as those on Hyperion."
