Composer:
Anton Bruckner

Conductor:
Daniel Barenboim

Background: Bruckner notoriously subjected his symphonies to repeated revisions. His reworking of the Eighth Symphony was undertaken not on his own initiative but in the light of advice from Herman Levi and Josef Schalk, both of whom regarded the first version of 1887 as un-performable.

In the years that followed, Bruckner revised first the Adagio, then the Finale (to which he made draconian cuts) and, finally, the Scherzo and opening movement. In this form the symphony was performed in Vienna on 18 December 1892 under the direction of Hans Richter and hailed in the press as 'the crowning achievement of the music of our age'.
