A century after his death Anton Bruckner still remains one of the
most complex and enigmatic creative personalities of the nineteenth
century. A leading avant-garde figure of his generation, he was an
accomplished performer and teacher in addition to being a great
composer; few people in the history of western music can boast his
level of achievement in all these areas combined. This book, a
collection of essays written by an international group of scholars,
offers diverse theoretical and musicological perspectives on
Bruckner the composer-teacher-performer. Facets of his formidable
theoretical training and his application of it as part of the
compositional process are explored. A variety of analytical
methodologies is used to examine the Second through to the Ninth
Symphonies, the heart of the composer's mature repertoire. Finally,
aspects of Bruckner's career as a teacher and performer, his
complex personality, his influence and dissemination of his music
are considered.
