Reger, Johann Baptist Joseph Maximilian R Composers Composition

Reger, Johann Baptist Joseph Maximilian

Max Reger (1873-1916) composed more music for the organ than any German since J. S. Bach. While their styles were considerably different, an important similarity was their belief in absolute music. Like Bach, Reger also worked a significant amount of counterpoint into his compositions.
