The composer Johannes Brahms is on holiday at Lake Starnberg. He takes a room in an inn, hires the rickety piano so that no one else will disturb him with their tinkling, and plays a melody that he can’t get out of his head. He plays it again and again, changes it – and then he’s right in the middle of composing. And there they are: the variations on the beautiful »Chorale St Antoni« – a real catchy tune.
