Max Reger stands at the end of a development in the history of music, which had complicated the harmonic processes to such an extent that there was the danger of a subjective lack of orientation in the language of music. The listener can reach an understanding of Regerıs music through an uninhibited, inner experience of the fluctuating harmonics which constantly serve spiritual expression rather than through analytical examination. Regerıs often rapidly changing moods are described by his teacher and biographer Adalbert Lindner: "The defiant-titanic-demonic, the humorous-burlesque and the profound, those are the three tonic keynotes, the true, pure chords of Regers being and musicality".
