Description

According to music critic Todd McComb, Reger is considered by many to be the most important composer to elaborate on the stylistic traits of Johannes Brahms and move German music into the twentieth century. He was an extremely prolific composer, surpassing many of the nineteenth century masters in volume during his short life. Reger composed in most every form of the time, except opera and the symphony proper. He was one of the main composers to resuscitate the fugue as a living, independent form. His organ music is considered by many to be second only to Johann Sebastian Bach's in depth and significance. German 3.25 x 5.5 post card showing two poses of Reger conducting, signed in pencil. The reverse of the postcard is addressed and has text in another hand. In fine condition, with light creasing to bottom border and a couple of stray pencil marks. RRAuction COA.
