• new filmed documentary „Anton Bruckner – The Making of a Giant“ directed by Reiner E. Moritz

„Anton Bruckner – The Making of a Giant“ is the first in-depth documentary about a composer who was long time underestimated by his contemporaries and only found recognition after his death. In the meantime, the Upper Austrian composer has become one of the most pioneering composers who significantly influenced the history of music until the 20th century. Director Reiner E. Moritz searches for traces on the most important places in Bruckner’s life and deals with both the symphonic work and the outstanding organ works. Through the use of interviews with scientists, organists and conductors he retraces the life of Bruckner who was a genius of tones.
