URTEXT EDITION 
This "urtext" or "scholarly" (scientific) edition was published at least 25 years ago in the EU (or 20 years ago in Italy, before 1995 in the former USSR). Hence, the edition is public domain in its country of origin or a government publication. Such editions are also public domain in Canada because they fail to meet the minimum 'threshold of originality' to qualify for copyright as an 'adaptation'. They may not be public domain elsewhere. More information about this can be found here.
Please obey the copyright laws of your country. IMSLP does not assume any sort of legal responsibility or liability for the consequences of downloading files that are not in the public domain in your country.

Misc. Comments

Motets by Anton Bruckner


  • Often referred to as a motet but not originally published with this title by Emil Wetzler (Julius Engelmann) Vienna, in 1887.
    • Published as one of his "aequali"? Yes, many of his "motets" were so published and I believe that may have been the title on the manuscript as well?- perhaps we (generally speaking) should go back to the titles originally used rather than dumping them -all- under motets...
