    I don't which of those is the scariest. Maybe even more scary is that scb apparently had that info in his head...

    I actually want to hear what the Bruckner sounds like
    "The isle is full of noises... Sounds, and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not"
    The Tempest, Act III scene 2 ll 148-9

    I have no idea about your Z other than to ask is the 'Alban' Herr Gerhardt the cellist?

    Is this our old pal Zemlinsky who studied with Anton Bruckner, who taught Erich Korngold and was the muse and dedicateee of Alban Berg's Lyric Suite?

    Wrong Anton. Alban Berg was a pupil of Zemlinsky, as was also the Anton in question.
