(unfinished) }} Anton Bruckner's Symphony No. 9 in D minor is the last symphony upon which he worked, leaving the last movement incomplete at the time of his death in 1896. The symphony was premiered under Ferdinand Löwe in Vienna in 1903, after Bruckner's death. Bruckner dedicated this symphony "to the beloved God" (in German, ''"dem lieben Gott"''). (While it may seem logical to call this work "Symphony in D minor, opus posthumous," that usually refers to the Symphony No. 0 in D minor). == Description == The symphony has four movements, although the fourth is incomplete and fragmentary: * I. Feierlich, misterioso * II. Scherzo. Bewegt, lebhaft; Trio. Schnell * III. Adagio. Langsam, feierlich * IV. Finale.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://imslp.org/wiki/Symphony_No.9_in_D_minor,_WAB_109_(Bruckner,_Anton) )〕 () Much material for the finale in full score may have been lost very soon after the composer's death, and therefore some of the lost sections in full score survived only in two-to-four-stave sketch format. The placement of the Scherzo second, and the key, D minor, are only two elements this work has in common with Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. The symphony is so often performed without any sort of finale that some authors describe "the form of this symphony () … a massive arch, two slow movements straddling an energetic Scherzo."〔Kenneth McLeish & Valerie McLeish, ''The Listener's Guide to Classical Music: An Introduction to the Great Classical Composers and Their Works''. New York: G.K. Hall & Co. (1986): 49〕 The score calls for three each of flutes, oboes, clarinets in B-flat and A (Adagio only), bassoons, with eight horns (5.–8. Hn. doubling on Wagner tubas), three trumpets in F, three trombones, contrabass tuba, timpani and strings. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Symphony No. 9 (Bruckner)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
