Great video, interesting to see the quote from Robert Simpson; he writes most graphically about Bruckner's Music, and, to borrow one of his remarks from elsewhere in his book, this scherzo certainly isn't about jolly woodcutters jumping up and down! It does indeed seem to be a vision of Hell; I wonder what the first audiences to hear it as Bruckner wrote it must have made of it (there was a falsified version that was played for some years).
