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

I don't mean to suggest that anyone has to be tutored, it just seems to me that Bruckner was in an awkward position of having to write "happy" "noble" music, not hard-won; though the results seem hard-won to my ears.

I'm also taking time to listen to the late Beethoven quartets. One thing I've found is that the Hollywood Quartet surpasses my Italian and Hungarian versions in matters of intonation--it's superhuman. I don't know if you've heard them or not, but it's been really helpful in following the line in the Grosse Fugue.
