Max Reger (1873-1916) was a celebrated German composer, performer
on piano and organ, and conductor. Well known for his compositions
for keyboards and orchestra, Reger worked during the crucial
decades when Western music transformed itself from the misty veil
of Romanticism and Impressionism to the more hard-edged modernism
that would prevail in the 20th century. Less well known are his
writings about music and the composer's craft. Although he wrote a
major book on music theory published in 1903 (and translated into
English a year later), his extended essays on composition, his
fellow composers, and analysis have never appeared before in
English. Christopher Anderson, a noted Reger scholar, has gone back
to original manuscripts as well as the published versions of these
writings to produce definitive new texts. Additionally, Anderson
has written an opening essay placing Reger's writings and music in
the context of his time.
This volume will appeal strongly to those interested in the Late
Romantic era; musical composition and aesthetics; and of course
those interested in the music and life of Reger.
