German composer Max Reger is often considered a bridge composer, linking late romanticism with modernism. His chamber music in particular shows his combination of classical forms with a complex harmonic language. The Violin Sonata, Op. 84, was composed in 1905, and first performed by violinist Henri Marteau on March 7, 1905, with Reger at the piano.
