Why is this Bruckner symphony challenging ? Bruckner 6 is challenging (at least for me), because it lacks these recurring themes which dominates Symphonies 4, 5, 7 and 8 and remains sort of a dark monolith .... by coincidence very similar to Sibelius, as his austere Symphony 6 is "sandwiched" between tone painting symphonies 5 and 7 ....

I just received the October issue of BBC Music Magazine. Y'all might be interested in the cover story "What's Wrong With Bruckner?" As they state: For something of a contrast, we dive deep into the life and music of one of classical music's most divisive composers, Anton Bruckner. To mark the composer's 200th anniversary this year, Stephen Johnson makes a case for this obsessive, troubled and endlessly polarising composer. Love or hate the Bruckner symphonies? Stephen has lived with them, and taken great comfort from them, for years - and he makes a compelling case for their deeply spiritual appeal and sometimes overwhelming emotional power. https://www.classical-music.com/magazine/issues/october-2024 Now listening to: Riccardo Muti - The Complete Warner Symphonic Recordings, disc 5.
