1824–1896 Symphony No.4 in E flat major WAB 104 ‘Romantic’ (1878/80 Nowak 2nd edition)

2 II. Andante, quasi allegretto 
3 III. Scherzo: Bewegt 
4 IV. Finale: Bewegt, doch nicht zu schnell 

This recording of Bruckner’s 4th Symphony was taken from live performances in Liverpool Philharmonic Hall. The excitement and drama of the concerts is superbly captured on this album. The symphony was completed in 1874 and underwent substantial revisions (including a new scherzo) in 1878 and 1880. The title ‘Romantic’ was applied after the composer added an informal programme for the pleasure of his friends.
