The story of Tristan and Isolde inspires tonight's Prom by the great Berliner Philharmoniker and its Principal Conductor, Sir Simon Rattle.
The concert opens with the powerful pairing from either end of Wagner's great opera of love and death - its opening notes fused with the concluding 'love-death' of its heroine.
After the interval a short happy birthday to Bruckner is followed by the mighty mystic cathedral of music- the seventh symphony.

Sir Simon Rattle and his Berlin orchestra open their second Prom of the season with a work central to the ensemble's repertoire: Brahms's Symphony No. 3, the mellowest of his four symphonies, inspired by a visit to the Rhine in 1883.
Seventy years later came Shostakovich's powerful Tenth Symphony, written just months after the death of Stalin. Its long opening movement seems to sum up the suffering of Shostakovich and his compatriots under Stalin's regime, and it's hard not to hear a note of triumph when Shostakovich's motto signature DSCH appears in the finale.
