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

RE: Has anyone else come late to Brahms?

"Thick textures do Brahms' music no favors" I think this is important. Brahms orchestrations give a heaviness to a lot of music that some people don't like. It is like everything is homogenized and has no sparkle and lightness to it. I find this to be a problem with some of his music although I do like the 2nd piano concerto and especially Kliebers version of the 4th symphony which is my favorite Brahms work
