PHILHARMONIE FESTIVA
GERD SCHALLER, conductor

"These editions interested me because William Carragan's work brings quite new aspects to light. He published the Second Symphony in the initial version a few years ago in the framework of the complete edition of Bruckner's works put out by the musicological publishing section of the International Bruckner Society. It seemed logical to perform the First Symphony in his edition as well. However, William Carragan has also involved himself with the Third Symphony, which has so far mostly been performed in one of three possible versions: the first of 1873, the modified form of 1877 or the late version of 1889. Yet there are also intermediate phases between those versions, from 1874 and 1876. Will Carragan has now edited Bruckner's first revision of 1874 for me, and it is performed for the first time on this CD. In this revision of 1874, Bruckner retained the phrasal periods - the formal framework - of the initial version, so that the movements retain their full length, but made changes to the motivic structure, the instrumentation and the musical context."
