Symphony 4

Album by Anton Bruckner & Wiener Philharmoniker & Christian Thielemann

Symphony No. 4 ('Romantic') is the fourth symphony by Austrian composer Anton Bruckner, completed in 1874 and substantially revised in 1880. The work is an expansive late-Romantic orchestral symphony characterised by broad, hymn-like themes, dense contrapuntal writing and dramatic climaxes, and it represents a pivotal stage in Bruckner's development as a symphonist and in the evolution of large-scale symphonic form.
First released: 8th October 2021
