Symphony No. 6 in A major (WAB 106) by Anton Bruckner is a work in four movements composed between 1879-81 and dedicated to his landlord, Dr. Anton van Ölzelt-Newin. Though it possesses many characteristic features of a Bruckner symphony, it differs the most from the rest of his symphonic repertory. The orchestration of the Sixth Symphony complies with Bruckner's customary, albeit peculiar techniques. There are no marks of extreme virtuosity apparent in the score and the lines are straightforward. It is scored for 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 4 horns, 3 trumpets, 3 trombones, bass tuba, timpani, and string section.
