A Note about the Versions of Bruckner’s Symphonies Recorded in this Collection: Devotees of Anton Bruckner’s music might be surprised to see the number of versions of the composer’s symphonies reduced to the nineteen recorded in this collection. Since the middle of the last century, the musical literature and marketing for the recording industry have created the false impression that the composer left us many more. A musicological preoccupation with identifying every layer of change in every Bruckner manuscript has resulted in a proliferation of editions with alterations that he made en route between clearly defined versions. Such changes belong in critical reports, not the score. Record producers insistence on identifying new releases as containing either the Robert Haas or Leopold Nowak edition has led to the common misconception that these two scholars printed distinct scores of all the symphonies numbered one through nine. With the exception of the second version of the Eighth, their editions are in fact very similar.

For the purposes of this collection, the performers have adopted the definition of “version” formulated by the editors of the New Anton Bruckner Collected Works Edition [Die neue Anton Bruckner Gesamtausgabe] now in preparation under the auspices of the Austrian National Library. As stated in its general foreword, the new edition differentiates individual versions of Bruckner’s symphonies on the basis of historical occurrences “such as a performance, printing or dedication or other event that denotes closure on a specific phase of Bruckner’s work on a composition.” [“Die NBG definiert eine Fassung über den Bezug zu Ereignissen, die einen verbindlichen Abschluss von Bruckners Arbeit an einem Stück voraussetzen, wie etwa eine Aufführung, der Drucklegung, oder auch die Widmung.”] These recordings contain the versions identified by the editors of the new collected works, and the program notes in each case offer a fulsome discussion of the reasons for the identification of that particular version. The collection does not include any of the first editions that were printed without the composer’s involvement – the so-called Schalk or Löwe versions. The only first editions of symphonies that Bruckner is known to have approved are those for the Third, Fourth and Seventh; their readings have been incorporated into the scores of the final versions (the Seventh of course has only one) of these works recorded in this set. Whenever possible the performances are based on the scores and parts that have already been completed for the new edition. [If the performance materials are ready in time for the Bruckner bicentennial celebration, the little-known intermediate Adagio that dates from between the first and second versions of the Eighth Symphony will be added to the collection.]
