Post Subject: Richard Wetz and Martin Scherber, composers influenced by BrucknerPosted by steverino on: 4/17/2024
I'm just mentioning these two composers as they were significantly
influenced by Bruckner without exactly copying him. Each wrote 3
symphonies. Wetz lived from 1875 -1935 mainly in Erfurt and Weimar while
Scherber lived from 1907 to 1974 mainly in Nuremberg. Scherber's
Symphony 3 is a modernistic take on the Bruckner style. Scherber also
wrote a series of very fine songs. Their symphonies have been recorded. A few came out on LP and then more on CD. I find both composers interesting but
