In the course of his research, Erwin Horn not only made a wealth of new findings, but also came across a number of autographs (Bruckner's own fair copies) hitherto thought to be lost.

 

This volume also contains facsimile reproductions of all the extant musical autograph pages.

Bruckner composed these 'miniatures' during his studies with Otto Kitzler. Their place in Bruckner's symphonic work is naturally a modest one, but they are his first genuine orchestral works and as such are worthy of attention and performance.

This work was written as a compositional exercise in the course of Bruckner's studies in musical form and instrumentation with Otto Kitzler. It undeniably shows the influence of Mendelssohn and Schumann, but it would be going too far to hear the influence of Wagner, whose Tannhäuser Kitzler conducted in Linz in 1863.

The Apollo-Marsch was for a long time thought to be by Bruckner, but in 1984 Werner Probst proved that it was originally composed by Kéler Béla as the 'Mazzuchelli-Marsch', of which the Apollo-Marsch is simply Bruckner's orchestration.
