Scott Morrison responds to Margaret Mikulska:

I have yet to get a good grip on Bruckner's symphonies - such long and
leisurely build-ups to his climaxes.  However, I intend to give him
another shot once the new year begins.

With all this negativity on the thread about particular composers, I
feel compelled to offer again my favorite composers: Bach, Froberger,
Schumann, Chopin, Shostakovich, Scriabin, and Weinberg.
