Bruckner Remembered (Composers remembered series)

By Stephen Johnson

Over a century after his death, Bruckner the man remains an enigma. Popular ancedotes represent him as a visionary simpleton, his life dominated exclusively by music and religion. And yet this same bizarre figure is widely held to have produced some of the most original and sophisticated music written in the second half of the nineteenth century. The reminiscences collected inBruckner Rememberedallow insights into a much more complicated, sometimes tormented mind riddled by dark obsessions and spiritual doubts, creating a profile that is as tantalizing as it is illuminating.
