Karl Hoyer (1891-1936), a highly esteemed pupil of Max Reger and Thomaskantor Karl Straube, was a professor at the famous Leipzig Institute of Church Music.

After his chorale preludes op. 57 were previously only available in libraries or antiquarian bookshops, the four-volume Bärenreiter edition makes the chorale preludes generally accessible again as a new edition. Formal variety, practicable brevity and moderate technical requirements characterize the works from the period of transition between late Romanticism and the organ movement, which were well known in organist circles during Hoyer's lifetime.

Compared to the first edition, the keys have been adapted to those of the "Evangelisches Gesangbuch" and the "Gotteslob". Practical indexes (analogous to "EG" and "Gotteslob") have been added to each volume. Volume IV also contains a complete alphabetical index.
