Reger's output was as prodigious as his legendary appetite for food and drink. His reputation as a composer of heavily Teutonic music is one that dies hard, despite the gracefulness and wit of so much of his work. As a 20th-century master of variation form, Reger is unsurpassed, and this week's programmes include his imposing sets based on themes by Mozart, Bach and Johann Adam Hiller. Presented by Misha Donat.
