Symphony No. 4 in E-flat, WAB 104 'Romantic' [Revised 2nd version, 1880]: Full Orchestra Oversized Score

The complicated history of Anton Bruckner's (1824-1896) Symphony no. 4 in E-flat (WAB 104) 'Romatic' began with the completion of the 1st version in 1874. What followed was a second version in 1878 with a revised finale from 1880, then a third version from 1889. While there is great debate about how much was done by Bruckner himself and how much was perhaps done by another hand has created disagreement among musicologists for approximately a century. One of the musicologists, the Austrian Robert Haas (1886-1960) produced this 1936 edition of the second revised version from 1880, believing it to be the definitive version that could be verified to be by Bruckner's own hand. It was this version that premiered on February 20, 1881, by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, Hans Richter conducting. Instrumentation: 2.2.2.2: 4.3.3.1: Timp: Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set). Reprint edition. 11x14 oversized full score.
