Dokumente & Studien 20
The Augustine Canon Josef Kluger (1865 – 1937), a glowing Wagnerian and, in the 1890s, an intimate of Anton Bruckner’s, became an important transmitter of Bruckner’s legacy. Kluger, as a member of the directorate of the Vienna Konzerthaus also an important force in Viennese musical life, collected newspaper articles and other documents on A. Bruckner, participated in Bruckner festivals, and corresponded with other Bruckner enthusiasts. This volume for the first time makes the documents from Josef Kluger’s estate available to scholarship and places them into the historical context of a time of high tension.
