I just finished a long article,,called orchestra power,,by Anthony Quin,,,Where Wagner met Bruchner,,Wagner considered Bruchner an idiot..

Zako, it is not exactly accurate, the event is well described elsewhere. Still, I less care what Wagner was saying, I more care what I am saying.  I however aggress that reading about Buchner is less extravagant and flamboyant reading then about Mahler. But I do read about them…. BTW, if you are interesting about the subject then find a good old article from Bruno Walter about Buchner and Mahler. I am not “completely” agree with him but it is very good read.

Interesting take, I understand what you are coming from. I do not mind Mahler but very frequently listening Mahler I need in the end to recuperate for a few minutes of second movement of the Buchner 8th…
