Horns 5 to 8 replace the Wagner tubas in most of the first and third movements, doubling as Wagner tubas at some points of the symphony. This is the only symphony where Bruckner employs the harp. This was, in total, the largest orchestra Bruckner ever used (since the Ninth Symphony, which uses an otherwise identical orchestra, does not require ...
The most substantial movement in the symphony, the finale is in sonata rondo form with a fast tempo. [15] The metronome marking supplied by Beethoven himself is whole note = 84. This is the first symphonic movement in which the timpani are tuned in octaves, foreshadowing the similar octave-F tuning in the scherzo of the Ninth Symphony. [16]

The symphony was premiered by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under Stravinsky on November 7, 1940.

The symphony has a traditional, four-movement ...
