Are we sure about this new death date? I did a quick google search and came up with both values. -- Rmrfstar 22:43, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
Did Bruch write another violin concerto? Both the recordings I have of this one (his Violin Concerto (Bruch)) say only "Violin Concerto", etc. etc. — $PЯINGrαgђ 23:04, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
Max Christian Friedrich Bruch ..., also known as Max Karl August Bruch
It says there is no evidence that Bruch was of Jewish ancestry, but was it common practice for non-Jewish composers to make settings of Jewish sacred music...? evin290 ( talk) 01:03, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
And let's not forget that Handel, who wrote "Messiah," was Jewish. Just one more example of a composer doing a wonderful job working with another religion's material. Roland the music lover. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.251.206.178 ( talk) 20:34, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
Handel was Jewish? Are you insane? — Preceding unsigned comment added by HBBorges ( talk • contribs) 04:37, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
I have read elsewhere (on the page for his first violin concerto) that he fell destitute during WWI. Does anyone have any information about this for the article? EdwardRussell ( talk) 14:27, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
Radio station Kbach recently reported that he was destitute when he died. Abenr ( talk) 00:59, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

After an hour of searching, I found the list was "archived" here:
http://web.archive.org/web/20071230102156/http://www.wooster.edu/music/twood/bruchcatalog.html. IXQuick wasn't good enough to find it; had to resort to Google.
OK, replaced old URL with new, with a minimum editing of the text.

... but the article doesn't say anything about his choral works. 151.213.48.90 ( talk) 22:04, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
On page 182 of his 2005 book Max Bruch: His Life and Works, Christopher Fifield says this: "Max had returned to Berlin for Christmas in December 1880 and married Clara on 3 January 1881. The newly weds returned to Liverpool and took lodgings at 18 Brompton Avenue Sefton Park..." Martinevans123 ( talk) 23:24, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
The name "Max Bruch" instead of "Wilhelm Bruch" got into the list of principal conductors of the [Royal] Scottish [National] Orchestra (1898). I have changed it to "Wilhelm" (refs RSNO web site; article announcing appointment on p6 of Glasgow Herald 21/07/1898; list of principal conductors in the RSNO Wikipedia page.
I guess the RSNO Conductors template is no longer appropriate to this page, but I'm hesitant to do such a big deletion. Perhaps the author of the article would review it? Wyresider ( talk) 22:14, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
I'm as much of a Bruch fan as the next person, but I noticed a little bit of fanboy-type wordings, especially in the "Works" section. Just look at how it starts: "His complex and unfailingly well-structured works..." The rest of that section follows a similar overly-effulgent tone favoring Bruch. I'd rather not be the one to fix everything - I'll leave that to the rest of you. But I strongly feel that it should be done. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.126.8.198 ( talk) 00:49, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
In this section, it says that after his marriage the couple returned to Liverpool. But I don’t think that there’s anthing anywhere in the article to say that he had ever been there before. How, then, can they be returning? Boscaswell talk 07:36, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
This article gives his wife's name as "Clara Tuczek". The German Wikipedia says the same thing.
Wikidata shows her full name as "Altistin Clara Philippine Tuczek", giving the German Wikipedia as the source. The German Wikipedia points to the Fifield book as the source for the information about his marriage, and I don't have access to that book. Does the book indeed say that this is her full name? If not that book, then is there any other source that says it?
Googling for this four-word name brings up only Wikidata, so I have certain suspicions. Amir E. Aharoni ( talk) 18:16, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
