Honestly, I know a lot of people who have listened to piece, musicians and everything, and almost none have positive reactions to it at first. Not many people would listen to this in their spare time. (I suspect if I said "this piece is awesome you'd totally love it" you may have reacted differently. Is there a cognitive term for that?)
Actually the structure of the piece, which isn't totally apparent at first, is one of the most intriguing part of the piece for many composers and theorists. The piece is famous for many reasons.
