Friedrich Hofmeister Musikverlag:
First piano composition by Michael Krücker published!
"Memories" for solo piano, Friedrich Hofmeister Musikverlag Leipzig, FH 3289
"... Memories - who isn't tempted by this invitation to recall and relive the warmth of their best memories?
Reviving happy memories on an inner "desert island" can bring back the sensations and feelings associated with them.
These piano pieces are intended as a retrospective that can arouse such pleasant moods in both pianist and listener.
They are moderately difficult, straightforward to learn, and easy to listen to."

Passacaglia and Fugue for Piano, edited by Michael Krücker,
Friedrich Hofmeister Musikverlag, Leipzig, FH 3247
Extract from the Preface, by Michael Krücker:
"... the Passacaglia and Fugue in F-sharp-minor from the year 1911 is both technically and musically demanding. The melodic imaginativeness and the frequent change from melancholy to euphoria highlights Röntgen’s compositional technique, in which part-writing is masterly finished.
The present composition is a very effective concert piece and a real alternative to well-known pieces of this genre."

Further publications are planned.
