Links with Richard Wagner |
- In his instrumentation - by enlarging the symphony orchestra (8 horns, alternating with 4 Wagner tubas in the 7th and 8th symphonies).
- In his harmony - by using enharmonic and chromatic elements. However, Bruckner has always preserved his originality. At the height of the trend towards "Symphonic Poems" he clung to the principle of absolute instrumental music, like Brahms. He was an instrumental composer, a pure musician and a composer of church music. Wagner's lifework consisted only of operas.
