Anton Bruckner - Symphony No. 1 in C Minor

Symphony No. 1 in C Minor

Early editions of the Scherzo and Adagio of the Symphony No. 1 exist in manuscript and they have been edited for the Bruckner Edition in 1995 by Wolfgang Grandjean. Unfortunately, no commercial recordings exist. Joan Schukking in the Netherlands has prepared MIDI files of these two scores.
