IMO, he was to Bruckner what Wilhelm Furtwangler was to Beethoven.... The standard to judge all others.
I also like Gunter Wand and Herbert Blomstedt for Bruckner. But not much else.
For me, Anton Bruckner's music had the longest learning curve of all the well-known composers..... Letting the "fruity" harmonic character and melodic lines surface will provide the realization that Bruckner's compositions are a lot deeper than given credit for.
