Bruckner and Christmas

Christmas comes but once a year but collecting items related to dear Anton never ceases. So with that in mind, here is a collection of Christmas-related Bruckner images. If you know of any others, I will be happy to include them.

Given that these are all secular in nature, one can always bring back the true meaning of Christmas by playing one of Bruckner's three "Ave Maria" motets (WAB 5, 6 or 7).

Season's greetings to all!
