The Bruckner comet with all sorts of interesting and astonishing facts is stopping off in Ried: firmly entrenched in the hiistory of Ried, the pop-up exhibition, the "Anton Bruckner cosmos", awaits your discovery. It includes letters from Anton Bruckner to the Ried music publisher, Josef Kränzl, the musical notation of the Germanic procession and other documents. The Bruckner comet encourages visitors to engage with the composer in a playful way and points out some unexpected aspects.

A project of the Cultural Department of the City of Ried in cooperation with the Upper Austrian KulturEXPO Anton Bruckner 2024

In 1865, a work by Anton Bruckner, Germanenzug, was published for the first time by none other than the publisher from Ried, Josef Kränzl. But what was life like in Ried at that time? What did the young town actually look like and what moved the citizens of Ried? On this journey we will also have a look at  Bruckner's Germanic procession and the corresponding correspondence between Kränzl and the composer.

Duration approx. 1.5 hours - in all weather conditions!

Josef Kränzl, a publisher from Ried, published Anton Bruckner's "Germanenzug" (WAB 70) as the first printed work in 1865. This was reason enough to take a look at what was behind this creation and the, at that time, still young town of Ried.

Jakob Weinberger is entranced, excited, thrilled! On 18 December, 1892, the young music student witnesses the world premiere of Anton Bruckner's Eighth Symphony in Vienna. At the end of this evening, Jakob's mind is made up: he wants to become Bruckner's first and only biographer! In "Bruckner Doesn't Die", Christian Schacherreiter combines the form of an artist's biography with a classic novel of character development.
