I find the 2nd symphony most appealing at first, the fourth didn't do much
to me but I like the rest too then.  Get to know the second first in my
opinionl.

Now, I find that I can only appreciate the 1st symphony in the concert
hall, things will get too long and boring with the repetition if I play the
CD at home.  It is only at the cocnert hall that you feel the stage tremble
at the sound, besides, the last movement is visually spectacular too.
