Many thanks, Dieter; it took me a while to love that symphony but eventually it clicked with me. I find that people can even be a bit sniffy about the Third, too, which is one of my top three Bruckner symphonies - especially that magnificent opening.
I have outlined before my differences with Mr Hurwitz, with whose judgements I almost invariably disagree, but he is a much higher-profile critic than yours truly and I leave it up to others to decide if they find him to be a reliable guide.
