Bruckner Studies, first published in 1997, presents musicological
and theoretical research on the life and music of Anton Bruckner.
It is one of the most important English-language books on the
composer since Robert Simpson's The Essence of Bruckner. The essays
provide fresh biographical insights into his enigmatic personality,
working procedures, and circle of students and friends; consider
the fascinating history of the dissemination of his music during
his lifetime and in this century, including its reception in Nazi
Germany; and provide analytical perspectives on his musical style
and its origins. The volume challenges the reader to reassess the
man and his music in a fresh light, unencumbered by decades of
special interest and propaganda which have coloured perceptions of
Bruckner for more than a century.
