The Variations and Fugue on a Theme by Mozart, Op. 132, is a set of variations for orchestra composed in 1914 by Max Reger; the composer conducted the premiere in Berlin on 5 February 1915. He later produced a version for two pianos, Op. 132a, where the Variation 8 ("Moderato") is completely different.
The theme is drawn from the first movement of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Sonata in A, K. 331, and is first presented by the oboe and two clarinets before being repeated by strings. Its second part appears again in the oboe and clarinet supported by high strings, and then is again repeated by the string section. Eight variations follow; then the fugue, in which the subject appears first in first violins before being answered after eight bars by the second violins. The piece concludes with a final, forceful statement of the theme by trumpets.

The eighth variation is one of the most beautiful moments in Reger’s entire output, and perhaps the entire late-romantic orchestral repertoire. If only more people knew of his works…
Agree. Great music.
Those last two movements are so exciting, the way Mozart meets Wagner in in the last molto sostenuto variation and the titanic last pages of the fuge. Stunning.
It is possible to analyse the work as a two-movement symphonic fantasy:
First movement: In sonata form
00:16 Theme, Var. I: Exposition (The first variation is in A major and the theme itself is not varied)
05:41 Var. II-V: Development (The main key of A major is abandoned and the theme slowly dissolves)
11:32 Var. VI-VII: Recapitulation (The main theme can again be clearly recognised)
17:12 Var. VIII: Coda
Second movement: A double-fugue
24:15 Theme I
30:39 Theme II
31:37 Both themes together
32:39 Both themes together with the main theme
Also as a three-movement sonata form (Ehrenfordt did so ...)
Such a wonderful orchestration.

That’s awesome! I love this. For more score recommendations even though some might be underrated, would be really cool! Even though you may not do some, it would at least be really cool.
