The New Bruckner provides a valuable study of Bruckner's music,
focusing on the interaction of biography, textual scholarship,
reception history and analysis. Dr Dermot Gault conveys a broad
chronological narrative of Bruckner's compositional development,
interpolating analytical commentaries on the works and critical
accounts of the notoriously complex and editorial issues. Gault
corrects longstanding misconceptions about the composer's revision
process, and its relationship with the early editions and
widely-held critical opinions. Bruckner's constantly evolving
engagement with symphonic form is traced by taking each revision in
due order, rather than by taking each symphony on its own, and by
relating the symphonies to other mature works such as the Te Deum,
the three great Masses, and the Quintet, and argues that Bruckner's
music became more organic and less schematic as the result of his
revisions. The book will be essential reading for those studying
Bruckner's compositions, the complex history of their reception,
and late Romantic music in general.
