Template talk:Anton Bruckner

I have separated the Cantatas from the religious Magnificat, Psalms & Te Deum, because it is a heterogeneous group: 5 not yet included Name-day cantatas (1 semi-religious [Entsagen] and 4 secular cantatas), 1 religious cantata (Festive Cantata (Bruckner)) and 2 secular cantatas (Germanenzug & Helgoland (Bruckner)). See MWV. --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 19:45, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder if we should make the subgroups groups, to use the space better. Compare {{Benjamin Britten}}. Up to 10 groups are possible. Perhaps "Sacred choral works", "Secular choral works", "Orchestral works", "Chamber music"? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:49, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You have more experience than I have with such templates. The template could perhaps look so:

• Orchestral works:
  • Symphonies: 11
  • Smaller orchestral works: 2
• Sacred choral works:
  • Larger choral works: 8 Masses, 5 Psalms, Magnificat & Te Deum
  • Smaller choral works: the about 40 motets, hymns, antiphons, etc. NB: In List of compositions by Anton Bruckner the number of this group is inflated (50) because of the several versions/editions of some of the works
• Secular choral works:
  • Lieder: 5 (or 6?)
  • Weltliche Chorwerke: about 40
• Chamber music:
  • Works for string instruments (including Abendklänge for violin and piano): 5
  • Piano works: 9
• Other instrumental works: Organ works (5), 2 Aequali (2, put in the MWV as "sacred music work") and Military march (1)

Questions:

• Would the works in each group be classified in a chronological order (as by Britten)?
• In which group would the "mixed" group of the 8 Cantatas (some in several versions) be put?

Let me know it, --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 08:17, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep simple, would be my idea, He is known for his symphonies.

Symphonies: 11

Other orchestral works: 2

Sacred choral works: 15

Secular choral works

Chamber music

Other compositions

We can always subdivide when more articles come along. If really many motets and Chorwerke, they should probably go to a different template, as the Bach cantatas. Years are nice to have but no must. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:06, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your advice. I have put the Festive Cantata by the Sacred choral works, and Germanenzug and Helgoland by the Secular choral works. The group Other compositions is so currently not necessary. It will be added later if e.g., a page on Piano works is created. --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 10:10, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
