Petroc Trelawny presents a concert given as part of the 大象传媒 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.
