Anton Bruckner (1824-1896) Austrian composer of music which is amongst the most inspiring, the most ennobling, the most profound in the ‘classical music’ repertoire.
His symphonies are large- scale, filled with dramatic grandeur and intense emotion - beautiful, humane and deeply mysterious.
His extraordinary religious faith also found expression in his three great Masses, his Te Deum and numerous heartfelt shorter sacred choral works.
“This publication, then, is for Bruckner enthusiasts everywhere.”
