I love the Berlioz, although I've never heard it live. I participated in a concert of the Berlioz Requiem, and that was the single loudest piece of music I can recall ever hearing (when all four brass ensembles and 16 tympani are playing at once). We studied both pieces in my first semester as a music major, many years ago.
