Summary

With their rich harmonic language and complex polyphony, these works are exemplars of Austro-Germanic Romanticism. Nicknamed "The Philosopher's Symphony," Bruckner's hour-long Sixth Symphony is among his shorter works. The Eighth, the final symphony Bruckner completed before his death, is dedicated to Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria and is known as "The Apocalyptic." Features lay-flat sewn binding.

Author Biography

A giant among 19th-century symphonic composers, Anton Bruckner (1824-96) is also well known for his masses, motets, and choral works. A deeply pious Roman Catholic, the Austrian composer imbued his works with a timeless spirituality.
