Brahms: Symphony No.3 Serenade No.2
Budapest Festival Orchestra / Fischer,ivan
Brahms dedicated himself to music that was pure and abstract, which 'portrayed' nothing: no stories, no travel epics, no visual impressions. But nonetheless the Third
does possess a personal undercurrent. The main thread of all four movements is the little motief F-A-F. With these three notes Brahms, the eternal bachelor,
expressed his personal motto 'Frei aber froh!' - free but happy! It was a reaction to the musical signature FA-E ('Frei aber einsam' - free but lonely) of his good
friend the violinist Joseph Joachim. And despite all his aversion to the new rage of the symphonic poem, he delighted in the letter from Clara Schumann after she
heard the symphony: 'The opening movement depicts a delicious dawn ... the second movement an idyll, prayer in a small chapel in the woods, the flow of a brook, the
rummaging of little beetles...'. - Clemens Romijn [from liner notes]
