It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Yes, yes, of course, of course. BUT...

68.57.91.150

There ARE a lot of reasons to relate the two. These include their teutonic roots, similar scale of conception and use of orchestral forces, heavy emphasis on brass fanfares and dynamic contrast. Then there is the even LESS tangeible element (compared to these OTHER intangible elements!:-) of "the epic journey". Mahler and Bruckner share a unique ability to creat symphonic monoliths -- self contained universes -- that, truly, just don't sound like anyone else, by and large. Anyway, I think that's what folks are getting at when the two are mentioned together.
