Bruckner's Ninth gets a stunning Finale with Simon Rattle and the German Youth Orchestra

Ken Ward, 23rd October

When Bruckner died in 1896 he had done much work on his Ninth Symphony and the finale was almost complete. Unfortunately the executors failed to secure Bruckner's rooms, nor did they ensure that the finale manuscripts were delivered to the Imperial Library. So many pages are missing, and those that do exist are in many locations world-wide.
