Son of singer Wilhelmina Bruch, from which received first music lessons. He studied under Ferdinand Hiller (1853-1857), then studied in Leipzig Carl Reinecke.

 

In 1862-1864 gg. worked in Mannheim, here he wrote the opera "Lorelei" (1863). The second edition of the cantata "Fridtjof" (1864) brought the first success Bruch. In 1865-1867 gg. muzikdirektor in Koblenz, in the 1867-1870 biennium. the head of the court orchestra of Sondershausen, then worked in Berlin and Bonn. In 1880-1883 gg.

In life, Bruch certain popularity enjoyed his large-scale choral canvases - "Odyssey" (1872) and "Cross Fire" (German: Das Feuerkreuz; 1899.). Over time, however, the focus of the performers and the audience were mostly symphonic works by Bruch: his violin concertos (especially the first - Op 26, 1868 - part of the standard violin repertoire.) "Scottish Fantasy" for violin and orchestra ( Op. 46, 1880), the play "Kol Nidrei" for cello and orchestra (Op. 57, 1881) on the topic of Jewish liturgical music (especially the psalm itself Kol Nidrei).
