I am just now listening to the opening of this recording. Some deer are grazing on the spring stubble along the hill I live upon.
Life is green again.
As I have said before, I live in the perfect house in which to listen to Bruckner. Like Spring, this music emerges from life. I also know that it has negative connotations. I also recall a wag commenting that Bruckner didn t write nine symphonies, he wrote one symphony nine times. I mention this because there was a time I found Bruckner boring.
