of the diatonic and the chromatic.
Well, what we heard was splendid.
Let's have it very, very softly.
"under your breath".
That's absurd. That's a vocal marking.
I don't see any singers, do you?
It's a funeral march, Wranitsky.
Watch out for the crescendos.
They don't go all the way.
I can just see the death carts
in the boulevards, can't you, Therese?
Black plumes on the horses
and gold epaulettes.
But who has died?
Is it the hero?
That wasn't bad.
It's not a symphony, though.
You decide what is art?
Steady on. Steady on, young man.
I didn't say it wasn't art.
The symphony has a structure.
This is a formless mass.
A mere arrangement of noise.
A great piling up of colossal ideas.
It's very moving.
In parts, it has elements of the sublime.
But it is also full of discord.
It is not what we call a symphony.
I don't think it's concluded yet. Is it?
My point entirely. It's lunchtime and we're
only halfway through. It has four movements?
Gerhardt.
Matthias.
You must admit, dear friend,
it is rather difficult.
That, Serene Highness, is the most lavish
praise that can be given to an artist.
Really? How paradoxical. Why?
Because difficult is good.
Difficult is beautiful.
Difficult is closer to the truth.
Yes, I see what you're getting at.
Well done, Louis.
So moving. So very...
How to put it?
- French.
- French?
It is new. It is bold. It is French.
The French are marauding thugs
and Bonaparte an ill-bred adventurer.
Louis doesn't think so, do you?
He is the champion of the poor.
Well, that's a good thing, I suppose.
I mean, somebody has to be.
He's a charlatan.
He doesn't give a fig for the poor.
He hasn't done half as much for them
as our Lobkowitz here.
He won't last long if he carries on like that.
He's only a musician employed by the prince.
You can't go insulting your employer.
He's not employed by the prince.
He's not a servant like Wranitsky.
He writes what he likes, when he likes.
But he can't talk to the nobility of Austria
and Hungary as if they were his equals.
He believes he is noble
by virtue of his talent.
He doesn't accept the inequality.
Those are dangerous sentiments, Herr Ries.
People have been hanged for less.
Right. This is for the players.
The gentlefolk will have proper food later on.
Beer, please. And you,
keep your hands off that ladies' maid.
Kirsten?
Hadn't given it a moment's thought.
What do you reckon to the band, then?
They've taken the symphony
to new heights.
Christ, have they?
Go on.
He's like a Roman hero.
He sweeps the old oligarchies before him.
