※ 引述《Piaf (...)》之銘言：
: On the contrary, Dr. william Carragan said that the ritards in the finale
: are authentic, and it's not optional. (In his opinion, the cymbal clash
: in the Adagio is optional, just a matter of taste.) ("The Bruckner Versions,
: Once More", American Record Guide, March 1995)
Let's turn our attention to the cymbal clash. In Buckner's 8th symphony
(1890 version), there is one cymbal clash in the climax in the Adagio.
However, back to the first version in 1887, there are SIX cymbal clashs
in the adagio climax (two pairs of three).
Georg Tintner, a great Brucknerian, comments on these cymbal clashes:
"Conductors can easily dismiss the cymbal clash in the adagio of the 7th
synphony, since it's not initially in Bruckner's manuscript. But how can
those poor conductors deal with these 6 clashes? Bruckner DID write them
down..."
There is an article about the 1887/1890 Bruckner 8th in Ben Korstvedt's
book. Worth reading.I agree with Fassbaender: this book is really a good
one, although the reviews in amazon.com are pretty terrible. The full score
of the 1887 version can be achieved in Schott-Eulenberg Miniature Scores
edition (USD 25).
Also, don't miss the preface by Professor Nowak (1972) in the 8th symphony.
