Synopsis
Anton Bruckner only began to compose his mature works at an age when most musical talents have already reached the height of their careers. At first his music was greeted with scorn and apathy. During the last years of his life, however, Bruckner enjoyed the beginnings of a success that only blossomed fully after his death. This volume breaks entirely new ground in giving a unique portrait of this important composer, providing an informative and comprehensive introduction to his work without lapsing into a welter of technical detail. This award-winning musical biography contains over 100 illustrations, annotated reading and listening lists, a chronological listing of all Bruckner's works and an index of people and places.
