MAX REGER (1873–1916) Complete Organ Works Max Reger was the greatest German composer for organ since Johann Sebastian Bach. His extensive series of works for the instrument include the popular Toccata and Fugue in D minor and Fantasy and Fugue on B-A-C-H, the Symphonic Fantasia and Fugue, which he called his most technically challenging, and the glorious sequence of Choral Preludes, a body of work of huge complexity and transparency that reveals an inexhaustible variety and invention. In this critically acclaimed series, Reger’s complete organ music is performed on seven different organs by twelve internationally admired organists.
