Synopsis

Product Description
Hyperion's Bach piano transcriptions series, which has done so much to illustrate the unique effect of Bach on the nineteenth-century mind, has reached volume seven with the complete transcriptions by Max Reger. Reger was described by his contemporaries as the modern-day Bach, partly because of his frequent use of fugue and other characteristic forms. Therefore it is fascinating to see Reger's direct response to his predecessor. In the young German virtuoso Markus Becker we have the ideal performer: he has already recorded the complete original piano works of Reger.
