That Macal recording of Gličre's Second Symphony may be heard on YouTube - in individual movements - and I have just listened to it. I did not know it so thank you for the tip - it is certainly highly melodic, entertaining and approachable. I did not so much hear the influence of Bruckner in it as that of Rachmaninov, whose Second Symphony was exactly contemporaneous. Lots of Dvořák, too! I endorse your recommendation as it was certainly a discovery for me, too.
