Selected Writings of Max Reger

The title of this book is, "Writings of Max Reger," but there is a pitiful lack of his writing here. Let me be more specific. Amazon advertised the book as having 184 pagers, and this is true, but as it turns out, the first 43 pages are the editors introduction (I-XLIII) and the last 34 are notes and an index. This leaves 107 pages: 9 pages are completely blank, 4 have a single title heading and 24 are more comments from the editor, and writings by other persons. This leaves 70 pages and of this number only 42 are fully devoted to Reger writings.



I regret to say it, but this book seems a perfunctory "publish or parish" sham. It is in reality a 43 page essay with examples of Reger's writing supporting the commonplace that the composer had a bad time with the musical critics of his day and that he could be counted on for some funny remarks.
