Part of it us one's upbringing.

I was listening to classical music almost around the clock from early childhood. So, I've heard the top 500, or even the top 1,000 classical hits, a whole lot. I can play large sections of many of them by ear, even if I've never seen the score. So a spiffy new high-def multi-channel of the New World, or the Pathetique, or the Spring, or the Jupiter, or the Pastoral, or the Inextinguishable, or the "- Of A Thousand" (hey, this is fun), is fine, but probably not as interesting to me as a convincing performance of something entirely new, or old but infamiliar. Even if most of what is entirely new is less than convincing.
