The 1873 version was rehearsed by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra in June or July 1874, but not accepted for performance. The 1873 version was lost in Leipzig during World War II.

Misc. Notes

Bruckner revised the symphony again from January through April 1877. Based on dates in the score, we know that Bruckner revised the Finale during this time; he may or may not have revised the other movements also. Bruckner revised the Adagio in October 1877, then revised the Scherzo in January 1878, which included the addition of a 41-bar coda, and this represents the final form of the autograph manuscript, now Mus.Hs.19475 in the Austrian National Library, which is one source for the score published in 1878.

Misc. Notes

"Stichvorlage" of the second version (1877-1878), which probably served as the basis for both the first published edition and the Oeser edition. Austrian National Library - item Mus.Hs.6058 for the third movement and Mus.Hs.34611 for the others. According to Bruckner Online, these were originally stored as a single record.
