Ward, Ken: Bruckner, Mahler & Anti-Semitism
The author Norman Lebrecht, in his new book, Why Mahler?," makes a passing and disparaging comment about Bruckner's anti-semitism. The comment is a clear example of Lebrecht's penchant for un-substantiated "shock value" comments.

In the attached essay, Bruckner Journal Editor Ken Ward actively questions Lebrecht's off-handed accusation in a thoughtful and scholarly manner.
