Karl Hoyer worked as an organist in Riga, Chemnitz and Leipzig. He was a member of the post Reger generation of composers, those who maintained a symphonic sound ideal while also deriving inspiration from the transparent writing techniques of the French organ composers around Widor. Hoyer's three pieces Opp. 33, 35 and 39 were often played during the composer's lifetime and were instrumental in stamping the composer as a "romantic" organ composer. Complementing the "Selected Organ Works" by Gerard Bunk (EB 8604), this edition of works showcases another composer from the first half of the 20th century who has long been neglected and is widely unknown today.
