The New Bruckner provides a valuable study of Bruckners music, focusing on the interaction of biography, textual scholarship, reception history and analysis. Dr Dermot Gault conveys a broad chronological narrative of Bruckners compositional development, interpolating analytical commentaries on the works and critical accounts of the notoriously complex and editorial issues. Gault corrects longstanding misconceptions about the composers revision process, and its relationship with the early editions and widely-held critical opinions. Bruckners constantly evolving engagement with symphonic form is traced by taking each revision in due order, rather than by taking each symphony on its own, and by relating the symphonies to other mature works such as the Te Deum, the three great Masses, and the Quintet, and argues that Bruckners music became more organic and less schematic as the result of his revisions. The book will be essential reading for those studying Bruckners compositions, the complex history of their reception, and late Romantic music in general.
