I heard about them but never heard them. How many masterpieces are left unheard. Bach, Beethoven and Mahler I would say are the most expressive in classical, though I like

I have never heard Davis' Bruckner 7. I have Jochum and Karajan -- of which I prefer Jochum. Most of my Sibelius recordings are Davis though, and those are great...

i hate bruckner, but am very partial to richard strauss. same orchestral style, but less imaginative and 'deep' than mahler, i find. and we can't forget schönberg's five orchestral pieces. the second and third..totally brilliant.

I'll second the Strauss. I haven't heard any Bruckner, but from what I've heard about him, I don't imagine I'd like his work all that much.
