Petroc Trelawny presents a concert given as part of the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Proms 2008 by the Berlin Philharmonic under Simon Rattle, featuring symphonic masterpieces by Brahms and Shostakovich. The opening three chords of Brahms's Third Symphony announce the motto on the notes F A F 'frei aber froh' (free but joyful). A motto, or musical signature, can also be heard in the finale of Shostakovich's Symphony No 10, written soon after the death of Joseph Stalin.
