It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

I'm not the Bruckner fan I once was either

I'm always surprised when I hear Symphony 0 though - for an early work, it's somehow more accomplished than I expect it to be. It's in the Skrowaczewski set, and I used to have the Haitink/Concertgebouw performance on LP. But maybe you're right - offhand, I can't recall a single theme from the work right now!

I've never heard the Furtwangler performance of three-fourths of the Sixth - I'm one of those folks who considers stereo an absolute minimum for Bruckner - better yet, multi-channel (the better to clean out those thick textures!). I have Blomstedt/LGO for my multi-channel fix of the Sixth, and the Haitink recording of this work was my imprint version. I also have the two East German Heinzes in this work: Heinz Rogner with the Berlin Radio SO and Heinz Bongartz with the LGO - which used to be available as a cheapie Philips "World Series" recording in the LP days.
