His music is more effective when he was not trying to be avant garde, so 2,3 & 10 for me and I think 6 is a bit of a mess

8 is my clear favorite, so the only one I voted for.

7 > 8 > something other than 1, 6 and 9 for me.

I like No. 6, don't like No. 9 and don't remember the others. The first five all blend together in my memory into one mega-symphony.

2,3,4 for me, but I have not heard 8, 9, 10.
Do what I must do, and let what must happen happen.
