Symphonies Nos. 6 & 7

Album by Anton Bruckner & Koninklijk Concertgebouworkest & Mariss Jansons

Symphonies Nos. 6 and 7 are orchestral works by Austrian composer Anton Bruckner, completed in 1881 and 1883 respectively. Both exemplify Bruckner's late-Romantic orchestral language—marked by expansive structures, rich brass sonorities and sweeping thematic development—and occupy an important place in his late-period output, with the Seventh consolidating many features of his mature symphonic style within the Austro-German symphonic tradition.
First released: 24th February 2015
