The Berliner Philharmoniker performs its third and final pairing of Brahms with Schoenberg, who so deeply respected the elder composer. This concert features the last two Brahms symphonies, the third full of rhythmic verve, the fourth deeply serious. Heard between them is a completely unexpected Schoenberg piece: his score for an imaginary film, full of drama and quiet, wistful pathos.
