Immediately after completing the Second Symphony, Anton Bruckner (1824 – 1896) continued a fruitful compositional spree by starting the draft of his Third. He had no way of knowing then that this work would continue to occupy him for the rest of his life. The Third is written in D minor, just like the early symphony that was not assigned a number and labelled as 'nullified' in the composer's autograph. Bruckner spent more time working on the Third than on any other symphony. His efforts yielded three versions that are now widely performed: the 1873 version, the 1877 version and the 1888/89 version.' (Excerpt from the booklet notes written by Gerd Schaller)
