Bruckner wird in einer Buchbesprechung der New York Times Nr. 17099 auf S. 43 ausführlich erwähnt:

"                 THE SYMPHONY.

FELIX WEINGARTNER'S little book on modern symphonies, on its appearance some six years ago, attracted much attention by its aggressiveness and its keen and penetrating criticism [... Kritik an der Übersetzung ...].
     [... zwei Schulen (neuklassisch und modern) ... über Mendelssohn ... Schumanns Symphonien schwächer, sind] "in the main more effective played as a pianoforte duet than in the concert hall." He has appreciation for the good qualities in Bruckner's symphonies–the wealth of his invention, the frequency of his themes, and what the translator has unfortunately rendered as the astonishing "long-windedness" of his invention, (Mr. Weingartner meaning simply sustained power.) His counterpoint, however, is often awkward, his development fragmentary–his noblest thoughts often "fluttering away into ineffective nothingness because they come into being but are not worked out." Of the minor men Mr. Weingartner has a special liking for Hermann Goetz. He mentions of Tschaikowsky only the sixth symphony.

     Most significant is the situation in which the present edition of the little book leaves Brahms. [... in den sechs Jahren gewandelte Einschätzung ... Berlioz, Liszt und Richard Strauss ...]." [keine Signatur].
