And for once with this composer, the word \\x91completing\\x92 can be used without qualification: known for his habit of reworking and revising his works, Bruckner for once seems to have been satisfied with the result of his efforts. That doesn\\x92t mean that the Sixth has enjoyed a smoother passage to the concert stage than other Bruckner symphonies, however: The only performance in Bruckner\\x92s lifetime was a partial one, of the two middle movements, and when Gustav Mahler conducted the first \\x91full\\x92 performance in 1899, he made a number of substantial cuts and other amendments. In fact, the true premiere of the Sixth as Bruckner wrote it had to wait until 1935, almost 40 years after the composer\\x92s death. And the work is still something of a Cinderella in the Bruckner catalogue, with far fewer outings in concert halls or on disc than for instance the Fourth or the Seventh. Bruckner called the Sixth his \\x91boldest\\x92 symphony \\x96with a duration of \\x91only\\x92 some 55 minutes it is at any rate one of the shorter, but possibly the composer was rather thinking of the remarkably expansive Adagio or the ambiguous Scherzo, or of the way the so-called \\x91Bruckner rhythm\\x92 (different combinations of a duplet and a triplet) pervades the work. The present disc is the first in a Bruckner \\x91mini-series\\x92 from Thomas Dausgaard and the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra, appearing together on disc for the first time.Symphony No. 6 In A Major (1879 - 1881) WAB 106","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55133609853313,"sku":"1136487","price":17.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/416QzFkaceL._SL1500.jpg?v=1767068862","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/1136487","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
