“Free but Happy” – Brahms’ 3rd Symphony
Johannes Brahms expressed his own enigmatic motto, “free but happy,” in musical symbols that weave throughout this beautiful, deeply personal symphony – one of the greatest works of German romanticism. The program opens with Hector Berlioz’ witty Shakespearean overture to Beatrice and Benedict.
