Sinfonie Nr. 5 B-dur

Symphony No. 5 in B-flat major is the fifth symphony by Austrian composer Anton Bruckner, completed in 1876. The work exemplifies late-Romantic symphonic writing with expansive architecture, dense brass chorales, rigorous contrapuntal writing and pronounced dynamic contrasts, and it occupies a central place in Bruckner's mature oeuvre as a consolidation of his structural approach to large-scale symphonic form.
