You played Bruckner at your parties?? Gotta love the conservatory crowds.I'd have never dared. Even at its extreme I kept it at the level of carefully considered light Perlman tracks or the New Swingle Singers' doing Jazz Sebastian Bach. Regardless, my party CDs were frequently adapted for use as an ashtray instead. (Though they never vomited into my amplifier, which apparently can happen, reading from a past posting here.)
Never heard Barenboim in Bruckner but the newer BPO cycle seems universally and uniformly and in all respects praised by basically everyone.
