The inability of the conductor Hermann Levi to understand this work caused the composer to spend three years revising it. As with his other revisions there are damaging cuts stemming from the influence of a colleague, but in this case alone, the revision contains manifest compositional improvements. The Haas edition presents the revised version of 1890 with the cut material restored from the original 1887 score; it is, in fact, a reconstruction of the final form the work would have taken if Bruckner had revised it entirely by himself.
