It's pretty much got it all; big score, big choir, big scope, big melody and plenty of emotion. He referred to Beethoven as "The Giant" and downplayed his own talent. But the Requiem is, if anything, a work that Beethoven would probably given the nod to. Bruckner takes some getting used to, but his symphonic tonalities are haunting. Bob in Seattle (where we take our symphonic music pretty seriously - and oh, The Ring Cycle; that's pretty serious up here, too...)
