Symphony no. 8

Album by Anton Bruckner & Fabio Luisi & Philharmonia Zürich

Symphony No. 8 in C minor is the eighth symphony by Austrian composer Anton Bruckner, completed in 1887 and revised in 1890. The work is a large-scale late-Romantic symphony with dense, organ-like orchestration, extended harmonic development, expansive movements and strong dynamic contrasts, and it is one of Bruckner's last completed symphonies that reflects his late symphonic style.
