Description:
Anton Bruckner (1824-1896) was deeply rooted in the religious traditions of the Roman Catholic Church. He set the Ave Maria to music three times during his lifetime.
The third setting was composed for alto and piano (organ or harmonium) in 1882. This short contrasting composition is characterized by a dramatic progression with widely spun melodies, roving harmonies, a unisono section and general pauses. The resemblance to the Seventh Symphony is unmistakable. In this arrangement for horn ensemble, this Ave Maria setting sounds almost like a symphonic movement.
In 2024, we celebrate the 200th anniversary of Anton Bruckner's birth. A great opportunity to pay extra attention to this composer, widely known for the magnificent horn parts in his symphonies and with the purchase of this work from the Collection Herman Jeurissen, you will receive this arrangement for free: Bruckner - Aequale & Steiermärker for 4 horns in F
