Picked up a box set (old recordings) of Anton. Couldn't resist a Symphony 0.

Classical music isn't dead, it's more alive than it's ever been. It's just not on MTV.

Yet, if I were to recommend anything at all, it would be the last three symphonies of the late romantic composer Anton Bruckner, Nos. 7,8 and 9. Words cannot convey the immense meaning and purpose these works hold for me. They are monumental and Bruckner is the true inheritor of Beethoven's symphonic mantle. I also would like to tip my hat to Gustav Mahler, an immensely important and pivotal symphonist, whose 6, 7, and 9th Symphonies, especially, are incredible experiences, though pretty mammoth for someone who is just delving into symphonies. Maybe, for you, in time.

Can anyone recommend me a symphony (or some if you insist)? I'm looking for something which is very interesting regarding composition and arrangement, hopefully the sheets are findable on the internet. I'd like something very classical or maybe post-romantic if it's not too hard to get into. Not really familiar with any symphonies yet except Mozart 40 and Beethoven 5, so you can probably name up a lot of good suggestions!
Any help is much appreciated en avance

Interesting. That 80s cycle usually gets kind of trashed, except for the Eroica.

The definitive symphony recording, from an original source of the recording; Bruckner's 8th Symphony as only Bruno Walter can do it!

Picked this up last weekend; it has been remastered, and is at a great price-a wonderful take on Beethoven's symphonies!

For those of you interested in the Bruckner Ninth Symphony, the link below directs to an interesting bit about the completed versions of the symphony and why they're better than most people think. (it downloads to your computer as a .pdf)

This Mahler 1 has to be heard to be believed, a riveting and deeply moving interpretation.
