Josef Anton Bruckner (4 September 1824 – 11 October 1896) was an Austrian composer, organist, and music theorist best known for his symphonies, masses, Te Deum and motets; his symphonies are considered emblematic of the final stage of Austro-German Romanticism due to their rich harmonic language, strongly polyphonic character, and considerable length. His compositions helped to define contemporary musical radicalism, owing to their dissonances, unprepared modulations, and roving harmonies.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })His works, particularly the symphonies, have detractors, who point to their large size and use of repetition. Bruckner's propensity for revising many of his works, often with the assistance of colleagues, and apparent indecision about which versions he preferred has only helped to further complicate matters.note There's at least six versions of Symphony No. 3 in D minor alone. Symphony No. 4 in E♭ major is just as bad; Symphony No. 8 in C minor has at least two versions as well. On the other hand, Bruckner was greatly admired by contemporary and subsequent composers, including his friends Richard Wagner and Gustav Mahler.Perhaps a case of Vindicated by History, his music is now widely beloved even in Vienna, where it now has an important place in the tradition and musical repertoire of the Vienna Philharmonic; his music was much maligned there in his lifetime.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Bigger Is Better | |
| Anton Bruckner (Music) / int_39297f53 | comment |
Bigger Is Better: Almost every symphony that he composed (specifically Symphony No. 8 in C minor) is larger in size and longer in duration than those of most composers (and even most of his Romantic Era contemporaries, except for Mahler). | |

Bookends | |
| Anton Bruckner (Music) / int_53224e46 | comment |
Bookends: The first and last movements of Symphony No. 5 in B♭ major are in that key; the second and third movements are in D minor. The first and last movements share one string figure, the middle movements share another. Also, the opening theme from the first movement is also presented in the coda of the final movement; the first-movement material closes the symphony as a whole. | |

Alas, Poor Yorick | |
| Anton Bruckner (Music) / int_86e17259 | comment |
Alas, Poor Yorick: Non-dramatic example. Bruckner had something of an obsession with death and the dead (no, not like that), and when the bodies of Ludwig van Beethoven and Franz Schubert were exhumed and reinterred in the Vienna Zentralfriedhof (where they lay with Johannes Brahms and Johann Strauss II), Bruckner was present, and reverently held the skulls of both men. | |
