Symphonie No. 5 in B-Dur

Symphony No. 5 in B-flat major (B-Dur) is the fifth symphony by Austrian composer Anton Bruckner, composed in 1876. The work is a large-scale late-Romantic symphony characterised by complex polyphonic textures, expansive brass chorales and rigorous formal architecture, and it occupies a pivotal place in Bruckner's output as a dense, contrapuntal statement bridging his middle and late stylistic phases.
