I checked "Born Free' on youtube and all I can say is you need to
apply for brainsurgery fast if you can't listen to Bruckner without
hearing such a oleaginous piece of pop crap in your head. You look at
Venus of Milo and think of Doris Day? You need a new, blank memory.

My brain should be completely rebooted & reset, too, I guess.

In the early 1970s, I heard the Dutch band "Exseption" on the radio.

This traumatic experience has somewhat reduced my ability to enjoy the beginning of Beethoven's superb fifthy symphony and a Bach toccata" (from the third orchestral suite, if I remember correctly.

If that was so traumatic to you, you'ld better stay away from radios (and
elevators, supermarkets, railway stations, etcetera).

I meant: a well-known organ "toccata" and the "air" from the third suite

I believe that Bernstein only ever conducted numbers 6 and 9

There is a story that Bernstein sat down at a piano (at a party or
something) and played large chunks of Bruckner 8 from memory,
explaining as he went why he didn't think the piece worked.

It can be found in the archives.
But is it true?

As I stated, it just pops into my head at the opening bar. Must be the
falling interval and the duple/triple thing. Rest assured I wouldn't
equate Symphony 6 with Born Free (Poor Bruckner, however, probably
didn't make as much $ as John Barry) . BTW, as a high school band
geek I really became interested in classical music via Barry's ( and
Mancini's) film scores.
