Over the Tintner, yes. Skrowaczewski would be worthy even at regular
prices. In any case, he and his orchestra are more "Brucknerian" than
Tintner. I like Tintner, but as time has gone on, I find it more different
or interesting than a single set that really looks Bruckner in the eye.
I like most of the other recommendations as well. With Jochum, my lean
is to the DG but the EMI is very good, too.
