About
This Complete Versions Edition includes all versions published or to be published under the auspices of the Austrian National Library in the Neue Anton Bruckner Gesamtausgabe (New Anton Bruckner Collected Works Edition). Anton Bruckner burst out of the confines of the cathedral using that most secular of musical forms, the symphony. The creator of some of the 19th century’s greatest orchestral music, Bruckner cut a singular figure among his contemporaries. This new complete Bruckner Symphonies edition from Capriccio reassesses these enduringly enigmatic and complex works. Presented by the Bruckner Orchestra Linz and the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra, and featuring all 19 available versions, the cycle is scheduled for completion in 2024, Bruckner’s 200th birthday. The second release, of Symphony No. 8 (1890 version) is performed by Bruckner Orchestra Linz conducted by Markus Poschner.

January 2022
the performance of the Eighth has a sense of power and depth that makes itself felt from the very start. Tempos are on the swift side compared with the majority of recordings made in recent decades, but never feel rushed...an extremely distinguished release.
