Symphony no. 7

Album by Anton Bruckner & Wiener Philharmoniker & Hans Knappertsbusch

Symphony No. 7 is the seventh symphony by Austrian composer Anton Bruckner, completed in 1883. Scored for a large late-Romantic orchestra, it is characterised by broad, hymn-like themes, dense contrapuntal textures and prominent brass writing, and occupies a central position in Bruckner's output as a work that consolidated his mature symphonic style.
