Symphonie Nr. 4 Es-Dur ("Romantische")

It was not until 101 years after Bruckner first committed his Fourth Symphony to paper that the work was published in its first version, by Leopold Nowak in 1975; it had its first hearing in the same year, in a performance in Linz by the Munich Philharmonic under Kurt Wöss. The Scherzo is a movement which only exists in this version. It is highly interesting to compare the final movement with the later fundamentally reworked version.

Instrumentation: 2,2,2,2-4,3,3,0-Timp-Str
