He also began the first of his 10 symphonies (1888-1910), his main compositional legacy. In 1897 he was named director of the Vienna Opera; his stormy reign there was acknowledged as an artistic success. He moved to the Metropolitan Opera in 1908 and the New York Philharmonic in 1909-10.

His emotionally charged and subtly orchestrated music drew together many different strands of Romanticism.
