The classical music world has embarked on a retrospective celebration of the works of Max Reger (1873-1916), who died 100 years ago this May.

Since the start of this year, David Schonfeld, co-host of WWUH Tuesday Evening Classics, has been sampling Reger's works on his programs. On May 3, 2016 David will be joined in the station from 6:00 to 8:00 by Hartt Professor Ira Braus, a musicologist and pianist with a long-time interest in the music of Max Reger. Ira will talk to us about Reger's significance, with plenty of recorded examples and entertaining anecdotes. Ira is a fascinating raconteur and an expert on the subject. If you're interested in classical music history, you won't want to miss his presentation.
