Program Notes

The Marsch in E-flat major, WAB 116, is a military march composed by Anton Bruckner in 1865. Bruckner composed this, for him, unique work on 12 August 1865 during his stay in Linz, at the time when he was composing his first symphony.

He composed this occasional work for the Militär-Kapelle der Jäger-Truppe (Military Band of the Hunting Troop) in Linz, as a gesture of appreciation for its participation in performances of two of his works, the festive cantata Preiset den Herrn and Germanenzug. However, it is not known whether it ever was performed by this military band. In the Bruckner-Handbuch is only noted that the march was presumably performed in Linz in 1865.
