1
00:00:11,230 --> 00:00:15,607
ORCHESTRA REHEARSAL
2
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,638
Ooooh! Go on...
3
00:01:37,547 --> 00:01:38,686
....try it out
4
00:01:39,879 --> 00:01:41,823
The acoustics
are marvelous
5
00:01:43,184 --> 00:01:44,429
It was an ancient oratory
6
00:01:46,003 --> 00:01:49,193
Along there, are the tombs
of3 popes
7
00:01:49,585 --> 00:01:50,759
....and 7 bishops
8
00:01:52,856 --> 00:01:54,516
It's a graveyard in here
9
00:01:57,727 --> 00:01:59,779
In 1871...
10
00:02:00,545 --> 00:02:03,985
....this oratory became
a true auditorium
11
00:02:04,685 --> 00:02:07,152
....for both vocal
and instrumental concerts
12
00:02:07,712 --> 00:02:10,179
All the courts of Europe
envied us for it
13
00:02:10,878 --> 00:02:13,476
For its acoustics
14
00:02:14,601 --> 00:02:17,033
Ooooh, hear it?
15
00:02:17,558 --> 00:02:20,334
The sound is limpid,
without echo
16
00:02:20,725 --> 00:02:22,669
Ideal for listening
to music
17
00:02:23,542 --> 00:02:25,618
Without any reverberation
18
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:29,105
That podium was...
19
00:02:29,875 --> 00:02:32,792
....for the world's
great conductors...
20
00:02:33,006 --> 00:02:34,286
....a mark of achievement
21
00:02:35,615 --> 00:02:36,824
What musicians!
22
00:02:37,285 --> 00:02:39,397
And the people!
23
00:02:39,790 --> 00:02:43,230
There were ministers,
ambassadors, clergy
24
00:02:43,478 --> 00:02:45,174
They'd bring their
own score...
25
00:02:45,670 --> 00:02:48,267
....to follow the music
26
00:02:49,984 --> 00:02:52,831
And what beautiful
ladies... elegant
27
00:02:53,290 --> 00:02:54,321
....audacious
28
00:02:55,516 --> 00:02:56,524
Playing tricks again?
29
00:02:58,647 --> 00:03:00,106
And the air was perfumed!
30
00:03:01,083 --> 00:03:02,577
....there was another
atmosphere...
31
00:03:03,344 --> 00:03:04,969
The public today is
no longer the same
32
00:03:05,641 --> 00:03:08,001
I must be boring you
with this chatter
33
00:03:14,339 --> 00:03:15,584
Everything is in place
34
00:03:17,853 --> 00:03:18,861
Beautiful, eh?
35
00:03:24,428 --> 00:03:27,797
But I'm only the copyist,
second fiddle to everyone
36
00:03:28,081 --> 00:03:28,875
Another year...
37
00:03:30,272 --> 00:03:32,075
.... and off into retirement
38
00:03:34,691 --> 00:03:35,557
I'll return...
39
00:03:35,839 --> 00:03:37,571
....only to attend concerts
40
00:03:38,832 --> 00:03:39,662
That yes!
41
00:03:40,850 --> 00:03:42,273
I couldn't live
without music
42
00:04:11,362 --> 00:04:13,379
Good morning to one
and all!
43
00:04:13,763 --> 00:04:16,432
I heard some TV people
are coming to do...
44
00:04:16,616 --> 00:04:20,020
....a documentary about our
orchestra. This beautiful...
45
00:04:20,234 --> 00:04:23,603
....auditorium was once
a church
46
00:04:23,818 --> 00:04:25,585
....of the 13th century,
as you must know
47
00:04:25,870 --> 00:04:29,797
There, you can see
ancient tombs and...
48
00:04:29,976 --> 00:04:31,850
I already told them
49
00:04:32,863 --> 00:04:34,523
Oh, I'm the first violinist
50
00:04:35,090 --> 00:04:38,352
Good morning, Mirella
51
00:04:40,100 --> 00:04:42,769
Can somebody help with this
cover? It weighs a ton
52
00:04:42,988 --> 00:04:46,878
Here, let me
53
00:04:48,311 --> 00:04:51,466
Don't say anything.
TV people are here
54
00:04:55,756 --> 00:04:58,353
I'd like to know what
they do with these chairs!
55
00:04:59,548 --> 00:05:02,538
Dirty Filthy!
56
00:05:17,570 --> 00:05:18,116
They'll break!
57
00:05:20,876 --> 00:05:21,362
....Break wind!
58
00:05:23,242 --> 00:05:25,080
I'm having a sauna at 4,
no matter what
59
00:05:25,782 --> 00:05:28,901
....a snake, a lion... about
thirty positions in all
60
00:05:29,121 --> 00:05:32,455
....but it's all
a mental approach
61
00:05:32,775 --> 00:05:34,163
There's no hurry...
62
00:05:34,897 --> 00:05:36,142
....You're doing wonderfully
63
00:05:37,193 --> 00:05:39,518
To me he looks worse
than the last time
64
00:05:39,733 --> 00:05:43,766
Oh, Professor,
with us again!
65
00:05:44,743 --> 00:05:46,819
I'll bet the Professor
here...
66
00:05:47,248 --> 00:05:48,908
....that within 4 months...
67
00:05:49,266 --> 00:05:51,519
Professor, my
Uncle Quintilio...
68
00:05:52,014 --> 00:05:54,410
....ravished them all
for sixty years straight
69
00:05:54,728 --> 00:05:57,539
Big eater. Drinker.
Exceptional stud
70
00:05:58,591 --> 00:06:01,058
Everyone said:
he can't last
71
00:06:01,234 --> 00:06:03,701
Well, let me tell you,
he's 93
72
00:06:04,122 --> 00:06:08,049
....and still going strong
73
00:06:10,002 --> 00:06:11,461
"One of Werther's sons?"
74
00:06:11,985 --> 00:06:13,195
....begins with G
75
00:06:13,307 --> 00:06:15,881
What rotten people
you run into...
76
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,533
....the light turned green
77
00:06:20,127 --> 00:06:22,179
....but he just stood there
78
00:06:22,910 --> 00:06:26,065
I tapped the horn and said
I was late for a rehearsal
79
00:06:26,528 --> 00:06:29,304
Then, as if eyeing a turd,
he says:
80
00:06:29,625 --> 00:06:31,950
"What's there to rehearse?
It's obvious..."
81
00:06:32,129 --> 00:06:33,789
"...you'll never learn"
82
00:06:38,288 --> 00:06:41,099
You're listening to the
soccer game? Not me...
83
00:06:41,315 --> 00:06:42,667
....I'm too nervous
84
00:06:43,298 --> 00:06:44,650
Your barometer?
85
00:06:44,933 --> 00:06:48,752
Let's see what old
faithful says
86
00:06:48,934 --> 00:06:51,151
Oh, it's gone up
another 15%
87
00:06:51,474 --> 00:06:54,700
....the prospects aren't
too good for my violin
88
00:06:55,162 --> 00:06:56,786
How's the octopus?
89
00:06:56,971 --> 00:06:59,746
Ah, it's a battle!
The thing's always there...
90
00:07:00,311 --> 00:07:01,805
....lying in ambush
91
00:07:02,015 --> 00:07:02,952
What a bitch!
92
00:07:03,512 --> 00:07:06,952
Go ahead keep up this shit
about my nightmares
93
00:07:07,825 --> 00:07:10,222
Don't get pissed, Professor,
it's bad for you
94
00:07:10,957 --> 00:07:14,255
Our neurosis is the
that's strangling us
95
00:07:19,342 --> 00:07:22,118
We paid a fortune for him,
but wasn't it worth it?
96
00:07:24,108 --> 00:07:24,594
What's that?
97
00:07:25,291 --> 00:07:27,829
A depressant
98
00:07:28,422 --> 00:07:30,047
I've tried them all,
no improvement
99
00:07:31,379 --> 00:07:32,660
....perhaps worse
100
00:07:36,529 --> 00:07:38,961
Why doesn't it play?
-look...
101
00:07:55,421 --> 00:07:56,915
Assholes!
102
00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:00,386
"8 and a Half" is a psycho-
analytical film? Get with it
103
00:08:00,604 --> 00:08:03,344
Brush up! What's with you?
104
00:08:03,667 --> 00:08:05,327
How can I play?
Hey, barometer...
105
00:08:06,276 --> 00:08:08,980
....put the chair where it
belongs so I can play
106
00:08:10,486 --> 00:08:12,467
No, sorry...
It's too close to the stand.
107
00:08:12,608 --> 00:08:14,755
I must sit there
108
00:08:15,217 --> 00:08:18,550
I must. Be courteous
I forgot...
109
00:08:18,732 --> 00:08:21,092
....my glasses
110
00:08:21,515 --> 00:08:24,705
I'm not here for courtesies,
but to play!
111
00:08:25,272 --> 00:08:26,801
l, here!
112
00:08:27,429 --> 00:08:28,294
l, there!
113
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:30,454
This is my place
114
00:08:30,873 --> 00:08:32,854
You're offensive... THERE!
115
00:08:33,100 --> 00:08:33,681
....HERE!
116
00:08:34,422 --> 00:08:36,676
You sick in the head?...
Stop it!
117
00:08:36,893 --> 00:08:38,138
You stop!
118
00:08:56,689 --> 00:08:58,077
....your attention please
119
00:08:59,611 --> 00:09:01,449
A distinguished guest:
120
00:09:02,186 --> 00:09:03,016
....Television
121
00:09:03,717 --> 00:09:04,998
With technicians
122
00:09:05,665 --> 00:09:07,646
....and director,
for coverage
123
00:09:07,788 --> 00:09:08,998
....of our orchestra
rehearsal
124
00:09:10,641 --> 00:09:12,337
....And interviews
125
00:09:13,041 --> 00:09:15,117
You're better off if we're
not interviewed
126
00:09:15,686 --> 00:09:16,480
otherwise I'll tell
127
00:09:17,565 --> 00:09:18,703
Tell what?
128
00:09:19,338 --> 00:09:20,726
That you get a kickback
129
00:09:21,634 --> 00:09:23,995
For your participation
130
00:09:24,140 --> 00:09:25,693
....and your union
representative agrees...
131
00:09:25,845 --> 00:09:27,054
Compensation: nix
132
00:09:28,036 --> 00:09:30,018
No one made any agreement
133
00:09:31,272 --> 00:09:34,641
It's a special job!
For special rates!
134
00:09:35,134 --> 00:09:36,557
It's not special
135
00:09:36,873 --> 00:09:38,297
No, nothing doing!
136
00:09:39,378 --> 00:09:40,908
We're not in agreement
137
00:09:41,571 --> 00:09:43,718
Theoretically, we could
even accept
138
00:09:43,971 --> 00:09:45,668
....but not the Union
139
00:09:46,476 --> 00:09:48,420
It's the usual hedging
with State Television
140
00:09:48,599 --> 00:09:49,844
that's never solved
141
00:09:50,304 --> 00:09:52,320
Let your representative
tell you
142
00:09:52,878 --> 00:09:54,787
Calm down, people...
143
00:09:55,104 --> 00:09:57,429
We're already poorly paid...
144
00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:58,853
....but TV wants us
for nothing
145
00:09:59,071 --> 00:10:08,074
The public loves music
and the ones who play it.
146
00:10:08,743 --> 00:10:10,819
....but the minute it
becomes a program...
147
00:10:11,247 --> 00:10:13,264
For filming us, at least
a token
148
00:10:13,509 --> 00:10:14,304
....a gift
149
00:10:15,075 --> 00:10:16,605
No one is obliged
150
00:10:16,814 --> 00:10:19,317
....whoever grants
the interview
151
00:10:19,529 --> 00:10:21,261
....grants it. Who doesn't
want, doesn't grant
152
00:10:21,406 --> 00:10:21,952
How silly! Numbskulls!
153
00:10:22,172 --> 00:10:24,533
Allow me to turn your
attention to something...
154
00:10:24,712 --> 00:10:26,894
What kind of
representative are you?
155
00:10:33,549 --> 00:10:35,910
What an insult! Dumb heads!
156
00:10:39,777 --> 00:10:42,694
I dreamt there was a horse
in my room
157
00:10:43,117 --> 00:10:44,255
That's not good
158
00:10:44,787 --> 00:10:48,013
....Though it depends
on the horse's color
159
00:10:48,231 --> 00:10:48,955
Shitheads!
160
00:10:56,651 --> 00:10:58,311
You want to interview me?
161
00:10:59,817 --> 00:11:02,106
I prepared it
162
00:11:02,739 --> 00:11:04,364
....he helped me with it
through
163
00:11:05,836 --> 00:11:08,718
"The piano is like
a king on a throne"
164
00:11:09,002 --> 00:11:11,327
"Immobile. One must go to it"
165
00:11:11,576 --> 00:11:14,945
"Bow down. Near
the stool to it"
166
00:11:15,613 --> 00:11:18,733
"It's like a mythological
creature"... his doing
167
00:11:19,578 --> 00:11:24,928
"A room with a piano
becomes its room"
168
00:11:26,329 --> 00:11:28,476
"It's an instrument
of royal courts"
169
00:11:28,833 --> 00:11:31,229
What was that, Sir?
170
00:11:32,904 --> 00:11:35,573
I said I once played at court
171
00:11:35,965 --> 00:11:38,635
Before Victor Emanuel III
172
00:11:38,958 --> 00:11:40,452
And you weren't shot?
173
00:11:43,863 --> 00:11:47,541
I don't want a piano,
I mean I have one but...
174
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,776
....it needn't be mine
175
00:11:50,125 --> 00:11:52,557
All the pianos of the world
are that piano
176
00:11:53,048 --> 00:11:55,195
To play mine alone...
177
00:11:55,554 --> 00:11:57,736
....would be limiting...
would be restrictive
178
00:11:58,337 --> 00:11:59,890
I think...
179
00:12:00,841 --> 00:12:03,997
....that to realize
one's self, one must...
180
00:12:04,355 --> 00:12:05,185
....be aware
181
00:12:06,687 --> 00:12:08,631
....that is, be more aware
of people
182
00:12:08,844 --> 00:12:11,620
....have more acquaintances
183
00:12:12,010 --> 00:12:14,750
Okay! I'm from
Marina di Pisa
184
00:12:15,524 --> 00:12:17,291
....but I took up the flute
in California
185
00:12:18,064 --> 00:12:19,938
....Where's it's played
sweeter, less violently
186
00:12:20,256 --> 00:12:22,758
The flute is a
delicate instrument
187
00:12:22,970 --> 00:12:25,887
The most similar to
the human voice
188
00:12:26,066 --> 00:12:29,671
Even if they say that
about the cello
189
00:12:29,858 --> 00:12:31,696
....and saxophone
190
00:12:31,876 --> 00:12:33,820
....and probably the drum!
191
00:12:36,155 --> 00:12:38,693
It's funny because
choral groups say...
192
00:12:38,835 --> 00:12:42,061
....they sound like an
instrument! But really...
193
00:12:42,244 --> 00:12:44,497
....only the flute has
that human quality
194
00:12:45,097 --> 00:12:48,431
What a mysterious sound...
supernatural!
195
00:12:49,028 --> 00:12:51,661
It even tames wild beasts
196
00:12:51,916 --> 00:12:54,454
Didn't Apollo use the flute
to awaken the dead?
197
00:12:55,430 --> 00:13:00,116
It's the instrument of magic
spells, both solar and lunar
198
00:13:00,335 --> 00:13:03,253
....why flutists are all
so batty
199
00:13:03,849 --> 00:13:06,909
It's true.
That's what they say
200
00:13:07,329 --> 00:13:09,582
Maybe because they blow
and blow...
201
00:13:09,939 --> 00:13:13,723
....and all that wind goes
to their heads, right?
202
00:13:14,531 --> 00:13:17,235
Everyone expects us to...
203
00:13:17,418 --> 00:13:19,600
....do something strange,
who knows why?
204
00:13:26,012 --> 00:13:27,850
The trombone is a
unique instrument
205
00:13:28,795 --> 00:13:31,784
....with a grave voice, that
admonishes with kindness
206
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:36,130
And also very comical,
accompanying clowns
207
00:13:36,310 --> 00:13:38,219
....as they squirt water
and take falls
208
00:13:38,433 --> 00:13:40,165
It's the instrument
of angels!
209
00:13:40,346 --> 00:13:44,273
That's true, in Renaissance
paintings you'll see...
210
00:13:44,451 --> 00:13:45,554
....angels with trombones
211
00:13:45,773 --> 00:13:47,920
Received by the Lord
to trombone music...
212
00:13:48,105 --> 00:13:50,216
....fantastic
213
00:13:50,435 --> 00:13:52,167
The trombone
is the voice...
214
00:13:52,314 --> 00:13:53,844
....of a solitary being
215
00:13:54,576 --> 00:13:57,043
I love to listen to it
along the beach
216
00:13:57,255 --> 00:13:59,437
....in wintertime
217
00:14:24,636 --> 00:14:28,147
I have nothing to say,
really
218
00:14:28,393 --> 00:14:31,489
I was looking at that
hanging cobweb
219
00:14:31,873 --> 00:14:34,446
5 or 6 yards long,
isn't it?
220
00:14:34,725 --> 00:14:37,323
With the trombones blowing...
221
00:14:37,474 --> 00:14:40,250
....it swayed back and forth.
Look, look, see it?
222
00:14:40,467 --> 00:14:42,969
....the spider, up there?
223
00:14:43,180 --> 00:14:44,389
....hanging from the thread?
224
00:14:44,710 --> 00:14:47,451
See it?
225
00:14:48,538 --> 00:14:50,377
Isn't it wonderful
that we're here to make...
226
00:14:50,556 --> 00:14:53,023
....a spider go on a swing
227
00:14:53,443 --> 00:14:56,219
Take a look at it
228
00:14:56,574 --> 00:14:58,591
That little spider...
229
00:14:58,732 --> 00:15:00,605
....while the trombones
played...
230
00:15:04,646 --> 00:15:06,378
Can you spare a minute?
231
00:15:07,116 --> 00:15:08,361
....for a frivolous
question?
232
00:15:09,413 --> 00:15:11,738
Is it true there are likes
and dislikes
233
00:15:11,952 --> 00:15:13,577
between instruments?
234
00:15:14,284 --> 00:15:16,122
Absolutely, definite likes
and dislikes
235
00:15:16,301 --> 00:15:20,299
We get along with the bass
236
00:15:20,512 --> 00:15:23,085
....because it keeps time,
tight and even
237
00:15:23,260 --> 00:15:27,602
Without flourishes, trills
or "arpeggios"
238
00:15:27,818 --> 00:15:29,799
The piano is a chatterbox
239
00:15:30,044 --> 00:15:32,333
And violins bleed
240
00:15:32,514 --> 00:15:34,661
In Italy they concentrate
less on rhythm
241
00:15:35,472 --> 00:15:39,077
More on singing. Neapolitans
have a good sense of rhythm
242
00:15:39,299 --> 00:15:41,102
They're the best drummers
243
00:15:41,770 --> 00:15:43,502
Who invented the Tarantella?
The Neapolitans
244
00:15:43,891 --> 00:15:47,746
I'd say the rhythm
instruments...
245
00:15:47,788 --> 00:15:49,176
....are liked
246
00:15:49,215 --> 00:15:51,611
....they got humor.
Yeah, they're friendly
247
00:15:52,172 --> 00:15:54,010
What he says is true
248
00:15:54,155 --> 00:15:56,302
That air of sufficiency...
249
00:15:56,869 --> 00:15:58,328
The condescending tone...
250
00:15:59,235 --> 00:16:01,737
The haughtiness... of
a violin, or a flute
251
00:16:02,262 --> 00:16:05,179
....as it takes its place,
just doesn't exist with us
252
00:16:06,159 --> 00:16:07,890
Let a Neapolitan in
an orchestra...
253
00:16:08,072 --> 00:16:10,919
and what's he become?
The tympanist, the drummer
254
00:16:11,099 --> 00:16:13,910
....it makes him feel happy
255
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,980
A little rhythm even helps
the Maestro...
256
00:16:18,161 --> 00:16:20,664
to get unwound.
Even the oboe
257
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,749
forgets that it's gloomy,
and begins smiling
258
00:16:26,372 --> 00:16:29,005
I don't want to be
interviewed, or photographed
259
00:16:29,190 --> 00:16:32,144
I don't want to be mistaken
for someone else
260
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:35,730
Try asking him
261
00:16:37,262 --> 00:16:37,949
Professor...
262
00:16:39,176 --> 00:16:41,014
Would you mind answering?
263
00:16:41,263 --> 00:16:42,923
Actually, you don't
deserve it
264
00:16:43,281 --> 00:16:45,534
Without compensation, I
shouldn't bother. However...
265
00:16:45,717 --> 00:16:47,733
....go ahead
266
00:16:48,117 --> 00:16:50,620
Let's see... Tell me
about your cello
267
00:16:50,866 --> 00:16:54,934
It's one of the essential
instruments of an orchestra
268
00:16:55,179 --> 00:16:57,849
You might say that
the violin and cello...
269
00:16:58,032 --> 00:17:00,606
....are the foundations
270
00:17:00,781 --> 00:17:04,743
....upon which all symphonic
concerts are built
271
00:17:04,921 --> 00:17:07,247
The pillars. Am I wrong?
-Yes...
272
00:17:08,679 --> 00:17:09,853
I'll explain the violin...
273
00:17:11,532 --> 00:17:14,866
The 1st violin is the brain,
the heart of the orchestra
274
00:17:15,150 --> 00:17:16,953
And the clarinet
is the cock!
275
00:17:21,343 --> 00:17:25,862
Look, I'd say the cello
comes close...
276
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,152
....to being the
"ideal friend". It's...
277
00:17:28,789 --> 00:17:31,909
....the true friend
....discreet, faithful.
278
00:17:32,303 --> 00:17:33,619
Not like the violin
279
00:17:34,147 --> 00:17:36,329
The violin is seductive,
fascinating
280
00:17:37,139 --> 00:17:38,207
....but deceiving
281
00:17:38,530 --> 00:17:39,217
It's female
282
00:17:40,165 --> 00:17:41,517
Oh, what horseshit!
283
00:17:42,010 --> 00:17:43,742
You don't agree?
284
00:17:44,618 --> 00:17:49,138
No, I don't agree,
because for us the violin...
285
00:17:49,316 --> 00:17:52,471
....is the most virile
instrument in the orchestra
286
00:17:52,900 --> 00:17:54,952
It's female!
287
00:17:55,230 --> 00:17:56,890
Isn't "she" always seducing?
288
00:17:57,318 --> 00:18:00,164
Well, if we want
to play games...
289
00:18:00,345 --> 00:18:02,705
....it's totally masculine
290
00:18:03,197 --> 00:18:05,214
....it's penetrating, phallic!
291
00:18:06,677 --> 00:18:08,444
I agree with my gentle
colleague
292
00:18:09,217 --> 00:18:11,922
It's not at all feminine,
there's nothing...
293
00:18:12,104 --> 00:18:15,330
....languid about it. It's
vibrant and always modern
294
00:18:15,514 --> 00:18:19,262
In the Conservatories it is
still the preferred...
295
00:18:19,445 --> 00:18:21,105
....instrument
296
00:18:23,551 --> 00:18:25,876
The cello is chronically sad
297
00:18:26,090 --> 00:18:28,795
The violin is the true diva
of the orchestra
298
00:18:29,153 --> 00:18:31,229
I was saying that
the first violin...
299
00:18:31,449 --> 00:18:33,181
....is the star
of the orchestra
300
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:39,553
When unfortunately we have a
conductor who doesn't keep...
301
00:18:39,729 --> 00:18:41,188
....the tempo, and misses
his cues
302
00:18:41,573 --> 00:18:42,747
....one who lacks authority
303
00:18:43,521 --> 00:18:45,774
....and we can tell
immediately
304
00:18:45,957 --> 00:18:47,724
as soon as he reaches
the podium
305
00:18:47,905 --> 00:18:49,221
....and raises the baton
306
00:18:49,784 --> 00:18:53,912
It's the first violin...
....who controls the situation
307
00:18:54,098 --> 00:18:56,281
....and guides the orchestra
308
00:18:56,673 --> 00:18:59,899
....literally substituting...
....the conductor
309
00:19:00,465 --> 00:19:02,612
Whose hand does
the conductor shake
310
00:19:03,527 --> 00:19:05,638
....when the applause comes?
311
00:19:05,858 --> 00:19:07,412
The first violinist's
312
00:19:07,458 --> 00:19:09,889
I once told a conductor:
313
00:19:10,242 --> 00:19:12,982
"You're in love with brass"
314
00:19:13,269 --> 00:19:14,240
"That's your speed:
bandmaster!"
315
00:19:15,912 --> 00:19:17,928
How does that fit in?
316
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,134
Getting back to the cello,
it's certainly
317
00:19:22,314 --> 00:19:25,196
....an instrument that will
never betray you
318
00:19:25,584 --> 00:19:29,333
Once it has chosen you
it remains faithful
319
00:19:31,081 --> 00:19:31,567
The bassoon...
320
00:19:32,577 --> 00:19:34,416
good for clowns
321
00:19:34,631 --> 00:19:36,683
I owe everything to
the violin.
322
00:19:37,309 --> 00:19:39,563
It helped me take wing
ahead of time
323
00:19:40,302 --> 00:19:41,582
In what sense?
324
00:19:42,702 --> 00:19:45,335
It helped me discover
where dissonances lie
325
00:19:48,304 --> 00:19:51,150
You're interviewing me?
Then I'll go there
326
00:19:51,643 --> 00:19:53,969
That's my place
327
00:19:54,288 --> 00:19:57,242
Comb your hair before the
red light goes on, Curly
328
00:19:57,593 --> 00:19:58,079
Yes, certainly...
329
00:19:59,993 --> 00:20:01,097
The clarinet?
330
00:20:01,628 --> 00:20:05,104
It led me out
of the fog of my hometown.
331
00:20:05,735 --> 00:20:08,475
A village...
....in the Po Valley: Gazoldo
332
00:20:08,518 --> 00:20:11,993
From August to April of
the following year...
333
00:20:12,344 --> 00:20:13,660
....it's invisible
334
00:20:13,979 --> 00:20:17,170
The bell tower vanishes,
the school vanishes... and
335
00:20:17,250 --> 00:20:19,883
Let me explain: thanks
to the clarinet...
336
00:20:20,069 --> 00:20:23,259
....I traveled the world.
And even met...
337
00:20:23,443 --> 00:20:26,148
....the great Toscanini,
who told me:
338
00:20:26,644 --> 00:20:29,005
"Bravo, young fellow,
finally..."
339
00:20:29,184 --> 00:20:33,253
"I hear a nice clarinet
sound." His words
340
00:20:34,089 --> 00:20:37,529
"Finally, I hear a nice
clarinet sound!"
341
00:20:37,777 --> 00:20:40,873
And you said?
-What could I say
342
00:20:41,222 --> 00:20:43,369
to a Toscanini
who tells you:
343
00:20:43,518 --> 00:20:46,508
"Bravo, finally I hear
a nice clarinet sound"
344
00:20:46,754 --> 00:20:48,343
What did he say?
345
00:20:49,432 --> 00:20:52,065
Didn't you hear?
"Bravo, young fellow..."
346
00:20:52,251 --> 00:20:54,920
"finally I hear a nice
clarinet sound"
347
00:20:55,521 --> 00:20:56,909
Who was playing?
348
00:20:57,191 --> 00:20:57,843
I was!
349
00:21:00,671 --> 00:21:02,687
....a truly fantastic
instrument
350
00:21:03,141 --> 00:21:06,332
....engaging. Not only
for its miraculous
351
00:21:06,515 --> 00:21:08,496
....possibilities.
With a trumpet...
352
00:21:09,334 --> 00:21:11,694
....you can venture into
incredible music acrobatics..
353
00:21:12,047 --> 00:21:13,114
No! What's extraordinary...
354
00:21:14,030 --> 00:21:16,141
....is that it allows you
to express what's inside you
355
00:21:16,361 --> 00:21:20,430
....joy, sadness...
even silence
356
00:21:20,711 --> 00:21:25,823
Claudio, you better talk
to this guy
357
00:21:26,869 --> 00:21:29,751
Pipe down, I'm being
interviewed here!
358
00:21:30,834 --> 00:21:32,815
A mistake... it happens
359
00:21:33,479 --> 00:21:35,590
The trumpet is
a passport to...
360
00:21:36,331 --> 00:21:37,719
a greater dimension
361
00:21:38,523 --> 00:21:40,397
Who plays it, understands
362
00:21:41,133 --> 00:21:42,378
A dimension of fullness
363
00:21:43,465 --> 00:21:45,197
Everything is more intense,
more sublime
364
00:21:46,039 --> 00:21:48,612
Ask any trumpet player...
we're quite a few
365
00:21:49,622 --> 00:21:53,026
Tell him how we trumpets
study harder than anyone
366
00:21:53,206 --> 00:21:54,451
What was that?
367
00:21:54,598 --> 00:21:57,195
It's true
368
00:21:57,450 --> 00:22:01,484
We spend hours making
our lips supple
369
00:22:01,660 --> 00:22:03,083
....before we begin playing
370
00:22:04,304 --> 00:22:06,557
The margin of error allowed
to other instruments
371
00:22:06,914 --> 00:22:08,503
....isn't tolerated for
the trumpet
372
00:22:09,106 --> 00:22:12,095
Aren't the strings just
as demanding?
373
00:22:12,376 --> 00:22:15,887
A clinker on a trumpet
is death
374
00:22:16,551 --> 00:22:18,425
....it has become a mania...
I can't sleep...
375
00:22:18,812 --> 00:22:21,873
....I'm a sleepwalker...
376
00:22:22,083 --> 00:22:24,230
They found me wandering
outside in pajamas
377
00:22:24,414 --> 00:22:26,395
....playing the trumpet
378
00:22:27,754 --> 00:22:30,743
I'm always terrified
of going sour
379
00:22:30,955 --> 00:22:32,508
You've worked quite a lot...
380
00:22:34,086 --> 00:22:36,968
Hey, "paragraph 9"! You've
had it with me
381
00:22:37,147 --> 00:22:39,473
You can go play
in a jukebox
382
00:22:40,036 --> 00:22:42,432
There's no muzzling in
383
00:22:42,575 --> 00:22:45,042
without getting cleared
through personnel
384
00:22:45,219 --> 00:22:45,835
You understand?
385
00:23:01,189 --> 00:23:03,442
Yes, I'm the Union
Representative
386
00:23:03,590 --> 00:23:05,048
for this category
Glad to answer you.
387
00:23:06,721 --> 00:23:08,274
We've freed musicians...
388
00:23:08,495 --> 00:23:10,227
....from a state of
intolerable servility
389
00:23:10,756 --> 00:23:12,665
The music worker today
has reestablished
390
00:23:13,192 --> 00:23:14,508
....his dignity
391
00:23:14,931 --> 00:23:17,184
He's not a minstrel,
or the puppet
392
00:23:17,437 --> 00:23:18,753
....of conductors and agents
393
00:23:19,316 --> 00:23:21,913
But an integrated worker,
conscious of his contribution
394
00:23:22,099 --> 00:23:23,202
....to mass culture
395
00:23:23,908 --> 00:23:26,481
How did we achieve this?
396
00:23:26,622 --> 00:23:29,576
By safeguarding his prestige
as a professional
397
00:23:29,753 --> 00:23:31,900
....through union struggles
398
00:23:32,466 --> 00:23:37,294
From equitable salary
demands to...
399
00:23:37,477 --> 00:23:38,792
....the elimination
of mediators!
400
00:23:38,937 --> 00:23:40,432
Keep quiet!
401
00:23:40,886 --> 00:23:43,519
From reconstructing
the organic whole...
402
00:23:43,705 --> 00:23:45,365
of the orchestra
403
00:23:46,001 --> 00:23:48,148
....to the shifting
of progressive objectives...
404
00:23:51,428 --> 00:23:53,646
I thought we agreed... What
will I do with him...
405
00:23:53,724 --> 00:23:54,269
A mouse!
406
00:23:55,360 --> 00:23:58,551
There! Behind the painting
407
00:23:59,395 --> 00:24:02,242
It's behind there.
-It's huge!
408
00:24:03,083 --> 00:24:06,689
There it is!
409
00:24:07,989 --> 00:24:08,961
Don't kill it!
410
00:24:15,991 --> 00:24:17,829
They're opening
all the sewers
411
00:24:17,974 --> 00:24:18,946
with their reconstructions
412
00:24:19,922 --> 00:24:21,511
Burn it! You gotta burn it!
413
00:24:24,307 --> 00:24:24,958
Let's fry it
414
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:27,254
Careful! Catch it
415
00:24:27,821 --> 00:24:31,261
It won't die. It bites
416
00:24:33,144 --> 00:24:35,682
I don't want to see it!
417
00:24:36,762 --> 00:24:39,229
Let's stew it
All right, throw it out.
418
00:24:40,032 --> 00:24:41,941
You're disgusting
419
00:24:42,015 --> 00:24:43,509
Hey! Are we insured
against rats!
420
00:24:43,650 --> 00:24:45,488
To your places!
421
00:24:48,522 --> 00:24:50,146
In place!
The Maestro's here
422
00:25:03,865 --> 00:25:05,359
Our respects, Maestro
423
00:25:11,588 --> 00:25:13,569
How terrible! Please,
no time now
424
00:25:13,746 --> 00:25:17,636
Put out dat light.
Ja, I know...
425
00:25:17,885 --> 00:25:19,379
....you from TV, but
I'm against it
426
00:25:21,121 --> 00:25:21,737
Oboe!...
427
00:25:22,895 --> 00:25:23,832
My feet are freezing
428
00:25:26,758 --> 00:25:29,569
I forgot my wool booties
at home
429
00:25:30,272 --> 00:25:32,454
Why you interested
in rehearsals?
430
00:25:32,742 --> 00:25:35,102
This is a workshop.
Or it should be
431
00:25:35,246 --> 00:25:37,678
....where we try to put
something together
432
00:25:37,856 --> 00:25:40,430
What are we doing now?
433
00:25:41,683 --> 00:25:43,557
....trying to construct
something
434
00:25:43,875 --> 00:25:46,164
Exactly for what purpose,
I've...
435
00:25:46,345 --> 00:25:48,670
....never understood.
You excuse me now
436
00:25:49,685 --> 00:25:51,832
We will talk after
437
00:25:54,242 --> 00:25:55,595
That light, please
438
00:25:59,218 --> 00:26:00,392
The strings, only strings
439
00:26:14,318 --> 00:26:16,749
Violins, what's wrong,
had an argument?
440
00:26:17,136 --> 00:26:19,497
Everyone is playing...
441
00:26:19,675 --> 00:26:21,787
....for himself.
Maybe because
442
00:26:21,937 --> 00:26:23,111
....you belong
to different parties?
443
00:26:24,164 --> 00:26:25,444
Why bother answering him?
444
00:26:25,799 --> 00:26:27,009
Attention...
445
00:26:42,047 --> 00:26:43,505
Stop! Stop!
446
00:26:44,761 --> 00:26:47,263
With finesse! We're not
in Amusement Park
447
00:26:47,405 --> 00:26:50,525
Sentiment, but with elegance.
You're violins
448
00:26:50,710 --> 00:26:51,778
....not trumpets!
449
00:26:54,154 --> 00:26:56,966
Flute, it's an E-flat
450
00:26:57,356 --> 00:26:58,150
....not natural
451
00:26:59,129 --> 00:27:00,789
Here it says E natural
452
00:27:01,495 --> 00:27:02,290
It's an E-flat
453
00:27:02,957 --> 00:27:06,112
It's E natural
454
00:27:06,505 --> 00:27:07,335
Correct it...
455
00:27:08,837 --> 00:27:10,913
For you it's always
the copyist's fault!
456
00:27:11,550 --> 00:27:16,307
Clarinet, not... uhaaa!
457
00:27:16,664 --> 00:27:19,096
....more delicate, poetic
458
00:27:19,274 --> 00:27:20,306
Why laughing?
459
00:27:21,048 --> 00:27:22,328
....not comic
460
00:27:22,893 --> 00:27:25,218
Maestro, the whole phrase
is hilarious
461
00:27:25,606 --> 00:27:27,966
Composer's intention
was not hilarity
462
00:27:28,146 --> 00:27:29,675
You laugh uselessly
463
00:27:29,851 --> 00:27:31,724
Listen...
464
00:27:36,461 --> 00:27:38,050
Even he's laughing
465
00:27:39,975 --> 00:27:41,149
It's very funny
466
00:27:41,923 --> 00:27:43,655
You're funnier
than the music
467
00:27:48,986 --> 00:27:50,445
I'm sending you 4 clarinets
468
00:27:51,213 --> 00:27:53,751
Even if you need 1,
you gotta take 4
469
00:28:02,241 --> 00:28:03,700
After, I'll tell you later
470
00:28:21,377 --> 00:28:23,453
Why didn't I stay
in California?
471
00:29:15,374 --> 00:29:16,868
Where are we?
472
00:29:18,227 --> 00:29:19,507
....on a soccer field?
473
00:29:20,210 --> 00:29:21,799
Take me for an umpire?
474
00:29:22,993 --> 00:29:24,938
Too strong! Too penetrating!
475
00:29:25,186 --> 00:29:26,538
Castrate yourselves
476
00:29:27,482 --> 00:29:30,293
He's right... the brass
was too loud
477
00:29:34,057 --> 00:29:35,789
He's a riot!
478
00:29:40,632 --> 00:29:41,842
Put the sheets back, go on
479
00:29:43,973 --> 00:29:46,049
I'm also sending a certain
Ciccio Calamida
480
00:29:47,104 --> 00:29:49,737
He plays nothing, but
you gotta take him
481
00:29:50,026 --> 00:29:51,200
because the undersecretary...
482
00:29:51,627 --> 00:29:53,015
Why did he do that?
483
00:29:54,201 --> 00:29:56,004
To give us a little break?
484
00:29:56,881 --> 00:29:58,161
....many thanks
485
00:29:59,316 --> 00:30:00,845
Remember the one who threw
his watch at me?
486
00:30:01,369 --> 00:30:05,117
Tomorrow, though. If it's
400 I'll give you 20%
487
00:30:05,787 --> 00:30:08,847
Sunday at the beach
and bring the kid
488
00:30:10,693 --> 00:30:12,425
Let's try the "Gallopade"
489
00:30:13,371 --> 00:30:14,272
....from no. 15
490
00:30:37,239 --> 00:30:39,812
Alt! You got fear of strings?
491
00:30:39,988 --> 00:30:42,205
Or low blood pressure?
Da capo!
492
00:31:07,856 --> 00:31:10,109
Alt! Oboe, too invading!
493
00:31:11,753 --> 00:31:14,113
....give room to the others.
Da capo!
494
00:31:40,317 --> 00:31:42,605
You tickle the strings
495
00:31:42,821 --> 00:31:45,811
....you must slice! Saw!
496
00:31:46,265 --> 00:31:47,854
May I ask a question?
497
00:31:48,388 --> 00:31:50,464
Do you know what you're
here for?
498
00:31:50,650 --> 00:31:54,778
I want compact sound.
Da capo!
499
00:32:21,474 --> 00:32:23,099
That's it! Like that
500
00:32:23,736 --> 00:32:24,602
Go on!
501
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,052
I don't hear! More life
502
00:33:00,407 --> 00:33:01,546
Let me hear the bass!
503
00:33:04,130 --> 00:33:06,039
Don't fall behind!
Weiter!
504
00:33:33,181 --> 00:33:35,363
Genauso! Break through!
505
00:33:35,686 --> 00:33:36,694
....ACHTUNG!
506
00:34:19,488 --> 00:34:22,750
Toscanini clarinet,
please be so kind...
507
00:34:22,932 --> 00:34:25,399
....to repeat alone
last four bars
508
00:34:25,577 --> 00:34:26,822
....from no. 82
509
00:34:28,221 --> 00:34:32,040
No, I played it once then
twice. The third time...
510
00:34:32,222 --> 00:34:34,238
....by myself is against
union regulations
511
00:34:34,832 --> 00:34:38,165
The passage must be executed
by the entire orchestra
512
00:34:38,484 --> 00:34:40,667
What's he running,
a school?
513
00:34:40,990 --> 00:34:44,845
I'd think less about unions
and more...
514
00:34:45,025 --> 00:34:46,579
....about music
515
00:34:49,374 --> 00:34:51,248
And yet I insist
516
00:34:51,428 --> 00:34:55,010
If Wagner had to worry about
517
00:34:55,184 --> 00:34:56,359
....unions and strikes
518
00:34:57,029 --> 00:34:58,654
....nix music and operas
519
00:34:59,047 --> 00:35:02,451
It's not the union's fault
if he wrote lousy music
520
00:35:02,979 --> 00:35:04,508
Ja... there's no peace
521
00:35:05,170 --> 00:35:06,486
....no calm, no silence
522
00:35:08,058 --> 00:35:09,446
It's a shit life
523
00:35:10,285 --> 00:35:12,503
Smear that shit on
your baton and then
524
00:35:12,685 --> 00:35:13,409
....give it a lick
525
00:35:17,382 --> 00:35:18,734
From 5-3-0
526
00:35:19,191 --> 00:35:20,127
The saxhorn, please
527
00:35:22,636 --> 00:35:23,359
What was that?
528
00:35:23,575 --> 00:35:23,955
Saxhorn?
529
00:35:25,732 --> 00:35:29,172
Not here
530
00:35:29,490 --> 00:35:30,593
Meaning what?
531
00:35:31,437 --> 00:35:32,991
I don't know. He's not here
532
00:35:33,178 --> 00:35:37,697
He "couldn't" come,
why is that?
533
00:35:37,978 --> 00:35:40,054
You asking me?
534
00:35:40,310 --> 00:35:42,777
I'll restate it
535
00:35:42,919 --> 00:35:45,030
Not he "couldn't", but
he "wouldn't" come...
536
00:35:45,285 --> 00:35:46,352
....in protest
537
00:35:47,129 --> 00:35:49,110
With the Union's approval
538
00:35:49,286 --> 00:35:51,231
So who plays,
somebody's sister?
539
00:35:51,965 --> 00:35:54,741
Leave our sisters alone
540
00:35:54,992 --> 00:35:56,546
....let's keep
the families out
541
00:35:56,870 --> 00:35:59,408
You said,
"somebody's sister"
542
00:35:59,689 --> 00:36:00,519
I only meant a...
543
00:36:01,672 --> 00:36:04,210
....hypothetical
saxhorn sister
544
00:36:04,490 --> 00:36:06,079
I don't grasp such subtle
humor
545
00:36:06,508 --> 00:36:09,604
You just worry about
your baton
546
00:36:09,848 --> 00:36:12,244
....and we'll take care
of our relatives
547
00:36:18,302 --> 00:36:19,926
All right then, from 5-2-0
548
00:36:20,389 --> 00:36:23,545
Not now
549
00:36:24,008 --> 00:36:25,466
The orchestra is upset
550
00:36:26,339 --> 00:36:28,356
....I doubt they can
continue rehearsing
551
00:36:31,766 --> 00:36:34,684
What the devil do you want
from me?
552
00:36:35,212 --> 00:36:37,952
See me lose my mind,
you want?
553
00:36:38,203 --> 00:36:39,792
You want my ass?
554
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:41,985
Here, you got it!
555
00:36:47,318 --> 00:36:49,572
The orchestra will take
a double break
556
00:36:49,893 --> 00:36:50,652
....20 minutes
557
00:37:18,805 --> 00:37:21,166
The conductor? He's not
too bad
558
00:37:21,588 --> 00:37:22,833
Bit hysterical, but
within reason
559
00:37:23,050 --> 00:37:25,197
There's no need for
conductors like that
560
00:37:25,380 --> 00:37:27,777
A metronome's better
561
00:37:29,869 --> 00:37:32,407
The public should sit
in with us
562
00:37:32,582 --> 00:37:34,694
They'd hear the orchestra
as if watching a....
563
00:37:34,879 --> 00:37:37,275
....battle in a movie
564
00:37:37,663 --> 00:37:39,501
....or watching a real battle
565
00:37:40,271 --> 00:37:42,560
Ascetic. Tormented.
Authoritative
566
00:37:43,473 --> 00:37:46,771
Magnetic... the identity
of a great conductor!
567
00:37:47,021 --> 00:37:48,895
Then there are the mystics,
the priest-like
568
00:37:49,074 --> 00:37:50,105
The acrobatic
569
00:37:50,917 --> 00:37:53,349
How 'bout that lion tamer?
570
00:37:53,632 --> 00:37:56,930
He'd turn into a harp,
a violin, the drum
571
00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:59,893
....a kettledrum, even
the bassoon, what a riot!
572
00:38:00,103 --> 00:38:01,632
When there's a TV camera...
573
00:38:01,982 --> 00:38:03,262
.... you can't shut up
574
00:38:04,208 --> 00:38:06,426
My Maestro up there
has to look at me
575
00:38:06,609 --> 00:38:08,198
....otherwise I'm jealous
576
00:38:13,671 --> 00:38:15,688
I'm on camera?
577
00:38:15,829 --> 00:38:18,296
"We're the lilies
of the valley"
578
00:38:18,994 --> 00:38:20,762
"We're pure Romans"
579
00:38:21,292 --> 00:38:23,652
....who's got friends?
Who sees anybody?
580
00:38:24,596 --> 00:38:27,028
You come in, punch a card
581
00:38:27,276 --> 00:38:28,628
....and pick it up later
582
00:38:28,806 --> 00:38:29,458
It's a factory
583
00:38:30,511 --> 00:38:30,997
Me?
584
00:38:32,042 --> 00:38:34,224
I thought I'd tour
the world with this
585
00:38:35,138 --> 00:38:36,169
....but I'm always here
586
00:38:37,678 --> 00:38:39,172
I'm sick of it...
587
00:38:39,731 --> 00:38:41,320
....this ridiculous
fart horn...
588
00:38:42,410 --> 00:38:44,770
It makes me feel useless,
it should be eliminated
589
00:38:45,575 --> 00:38:46,999
What's it good for?
590
00:38:47,628 --> 00:38:49,538
It can even be dangerous
591
00:38:49,716 --> 00:38:52,421
I give my all to shape
a sound
592
00:38:52,604 --> 00:38:55,795
....and out comes
another fart
593
00:38:57,475 --> 00:38:59,004
I think...
594
00:38:59,632 --> 00:39:02,265
....it's the very symbol
of obtuseness
595
00:39:02,519 --> 00:39:04,322
....of a stolid mentality
596
00:39:04,468 --> 00:39:06,935
Of those relationships...
597
00:39:07,599 --> 00:39:09,296
....in an orchestra,
that inhibit
598
00:39:10,869 --> 00:39:12,008
....any sort of contact
599
00:39:15,010 --> 00:39:17,062
I wanted to say that many
of us are from the provinces
600
00:39:17,514 --> 00:39:18,486
What province?...
601
00:39:19,463 --> 00:39:21,302
I'm from Naples:
"vaffanculo"
602
00:39:22,663 --> 00:39:24,466
The actual truth though
603
00:39:24,612 --> 00:39:26,450
....is that we're limited
604
00:39:27,291 --> 00:39:28,536
....culturally
605
00:39:29,448 --> 00:39:31,951
We've no real interests
in anything
606
00:39:32,093 --> 00:39:34,904
We spend our lives with
a piece of wood or tin
607
00:39:35,084 --> 00:39:37,551
....blowing away, or plucking
608
00:39:37,728 --> 00:39:40,646
Blow your philosophy
someplace else
609
00:39:42,286 --> 00:39:43,116
Anyway...
610
00:39:43,991 --> 00:39:45,165
All your gabbing about
611
00:39:46,218 --> 00:39:49,136
....Unions, the organic whole,
politics
612
00:39:49,523 --> 00:39:51,361
....brass section, strings
613
00:39:51,506 --> 00:39:53,582
....this or that conductor
614
00:39:53,767 --> 00:39:55,499
....couldn't interest me less
615
00:39:56,203 --> 00:40:00,023
Because I can't get it up
anymore
616
00:40:01,074 --> 00:40:01,939
That's the real tragedy
617
00:40:17,113 --> 00:40:19,853
Drink, drink, it's great
for the liver and the brain
618
00:40:21,079 --> 00:40:22,110
Just a drop of wine...
619
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:24,138
....picks me up
620
00:40:24,489 --> 00:40:26,221
A little drop can't hurt
621
00:40:26,611 --> 00:40:30,715
It's whiskey, I saw it
622
00:40:30,925 --> 00:40:33,701
....and I even smell it
623
00:40:34,161 --> 00:40:38,538
Each to his own vices.
Better to drink...
624
00:40:38,753 --> 00:40:40,176
....than go molesting
little girls
625
00:40:41,154 --> 00:40:44,760
They'll catch you one day.
That's worse...
626
00:40:44,946 --> 00:40:45,456
....than whiskey
627
00:40:47,660 --> 00:40:49,498
I didn't choose the tuba
628
00:40:50,234 --> 00:40:51,587
....it chose me
629
00:40:52,774 --> 00:40:56,000
I loved the trumpet.
It gave me goose pimples
630
00:40:56,427 --> 00:40:58,194
You remember in the army...
631
00:40:58,446 --> 00:40:59,833
....when they played taps
632
00:41:10,031 --> 00:41:11,905
I'd get a lump in my throat
633
00:41:12,153 --> 00:41:14,335
....and then go AWOL.
634
00:41:14,589 --> 00:41:15,798
I'm very sensitive
635
00:41:16,398 --> 00:41:17,678
All art makes me cry
636
00:41:19,181 --> 00:41:20,249
And that's not all...
637
00:41:21,687 --> 00:41:23,311
At times I could die
638
00:41:23,878 --> 00:41:24,744
Why?
639
00:41:24,922 --> 00:41:28,327
The world is evil
640
00:41:29,271 --> 00:41:30,587
Now I miss my father!
641
00:41:31,428 --> 00:41:32,851
What the fuck you saying?
642
00:41:33,481 --> 00:41:35,557
Let's talk about
the instrument
643
00:41:35,985 --> 00:41:38,097
The fact that everybody
refused it, moved me
644
00:41:38,978 --> 00:41:40,887
Poor tuba... like a stray dog
645
00:41:41,274 --> 00:41:44,714
I felt akin to it
646
00:41:45,449 --> 00:41:46,457
....sad, and solitary...
647
00:41:47,119 --> 00:41:48,993
It's awkward like me
648
00:41:49,171 --> 00:41:51,912
We had to get together
649
00:41:52,512 --> 00:41:55,667
And we did. I did well,
it was destiny!
650
00:41:56,791 --> 00:41:58,144
....I'm attached to it
651
00:41:59,262 --> 00:42:00,293
....we're true friends
652
00:42:03,193 --> 00:42:05,766
When things are down
we go by the window
653
00:42:06,011 --> 00:42:08,028
....look up at the moon
654
00:42:09,351 --> 00:42:11,332
....and play a little solo
from Verdi
655
00:42:11,682 --> 00:42:14,008
Like to hear it? Eh?
656
00:42:15,161 --> 00:42:16,620
A little piece, why not
657
00:42:40,385 --> 00:42:43,054
People react and interpret
sounds, each in their own way
658
00:42:43,795 --> 00:42:45,183
It's a personal thing
659
00:42:45,569 --> 00:42:49,080
An F-sharp, or a B-flat
660
00:42:49,257 --> 00:42:50,954
....can make some
people swoon
661
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,223
....and others vomit. That's
the way the ball bounces
662
00:42:54,928 --> 00:42:56,909
Yes, true
663
00:42:57,433 --> 00:42:59,485
What a magnificent
instrument the oboe is
664
00:43:00,390 --> 00:43:01,778
It's the oldest of all
665
00:43:02,582 --> 00:43:04,112
....invented by the Chinese
666
00:43:05,609 --> 00:43:06,581
The most difficult
667
00:43:07,592 --> 00:43:08,387
The most delicate
668
00:43:09,923 --> 00:43:10,895
....and most alone
669
00:43:11,732 --> 00:43:13,226
We oboists are isolated
670
00:43:13,820 --> 00:43:16,037
Envied, even disliked
671
00:43:17,821 --> 00:43:21,404
The orchestra has to reckon
with the oboe
672
00:43:22,658 --> 00:43:24,911
The oboe sets down the laws
673
00:43:25,162 --> 00:43:28,388
The oboe established
the diapason
674
00:43:28,710 --> 00:43:30,205
....between the highest pitch
675
00:43:31,008 --> 00:43:32,739
....and the lowest
676
00:43:33,721 --> 00:43:35,594
It's owing to this privilege
677
00:43:36,017 --> 00:43:37,713
....that the violin hates
the oboe
678
00:43:38,452 --> 00:43:42,486
....and the oboe the violin
679
00:43:43,219 --> 00:43:45,330
It's an instrument
680
00:43:48,612 --> 00:43:51,423
....of great spirituality
681
00:43:52,995 --> 00:43:54,869
He who plays it,
develops...
682
00:43:56,022 --> 00:43:57,790
....a sort of special power
683
00:44:00,476 --> 00:44:02,457
An interior vision
684
00:44:02,946 --> 00:44:04,262
....which permits him
685
00:44:05,033 --> 00:44:07,014
....to perceive the color
of sound
686
00:44:08,373 --> 00:44:09,168
I play...
687
00:44:10,322 --> 00:44:11,009
....and see
688
00:44:12,270 --> 00:44:14,037
....an aura of gold
689
00:44:14,671 --> 00:44:16,023
....luminous
690
00:44:16,272 --> 00:44:17,695
....the color of sunlight...
691
00:44:19,820 --> 00:44:22,002
like a spreading reflection
It's true...
692
00:44:22,568 --> 00:44:24,894
I once saw a thing...
693
00:44:25,177 --> 00:44:27,087
....like a long streamer
694
00:44:28,761 --> 00:44:31,537
A supernatural experience!
695
00:44:32,311 --> 00:44:34,908
Let him hear.
You care to hear?
696
00:44:35,128 --> 00:44:37,725
Certainly, if you're
not bored
697
00:44:48,349 --> 00:44:49,488
Maestro?... Excuse me
698
00:44:53,116 --> 00:44:54,124
Another minute...
699
00:44:54,925 --> 00:44:55,956
....he's taking a shower
700
00:44:58,473 --> 00:45:01,320
With the permanent conductor
they once had...
701
00:45:02,023 --> 00:45:04,099
....the musicians didn't
carry on like this
702
00:45:05,779 --> 00:45:07,333
Everyone wore a tie!
703
00:45:08,007 --> 00:45:10,189
You were in trouble
if you didn't
704
00:45:11,555 --> 00:45:15,374
Now I wouldn't be surprised
if they soaked their feet...
705
00:45:15,556 --> 00:45:17,703
....while playing.
We had a strict rule
706
00:45:17,887 --> 00:45:21,185
Whoever went flat
or missed his cue
707
00:45:21,784 --> 00:45:23,931
....had to play standing
708
00:45:24,394 --> 00:45:26,647
For the length of
the entire concert
709
00:45:27,073 --> 00:45:28,211
....as punishment
710
00:45:29,751 --> 00:45:32,812
What? Sessions? Hour shifts?
711
00:45:32,987 --> 00:45:34,481
....you worked all night
712
00:45:35,561 --> 00:45:37,957
Ah, how often I had to wait
till dawn
713
00:45:38,971 --> 00:45:41,473
And the musicians, at dawn,
dead tired...
714
00:45:42,485 --> 00:45:43,873
....would applaud
the conductor
715
00:45:44,572 --> 00:45:45,746
....and thank him
716
00:45:47,251 --> 00:45:48,805
Oh, he was phenomenal
717
00:45:49,965 --> 00:45:52,812
....he conducted with eyes
closed, as if in a trance
718
00:45:53,131 --> 00:45:55,384
....and yet saw everything.
How?...
719
00:45:58,872 --> 00:46:02,170
When he had to give a player
a calling down
720
00:46:02,873 --> 00:46:06,419
....he could find words
that would skin him alive
721
00:46:07,257 --> 00:46:09,309
And make him ill for a month
722
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,438
And with his baton?
Such lashings...
723
00:46:13,623 --> 00:46:15,117
....on the hands and fingers
of those players
724
00:46:15,294 --> 00:46:16,883
who made a mistake
725
00:46:17,555 --> 00:46:19,607
It would hiss!
726
00:46:20,268 --> 00:46:23,779
Yet, you know something?
They were happy
727
00:46:24,549 --> 00:46:27,182
....for those hand raps
728
00:46:28,618 --> 00:46:30,765
They'd come up like
school children
729
00:46:31,785 --> 00:46:33,588
....hands held out and say:
730
00:46:34,047 --> 00:46:35,885
"My fault"
731
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:38,386
"Hit me too... Me too,
I was wrong"
732
00:46:38,952 --> 00:46:40,896
Those were the days!
733
00:46:42,814 --> 00:46:44,759
You see what he's doing?
734
00:46:45,493 --> 00:46:47,225
TAKE YOUR STICK AND
CONDUCT MY PRICK
735
00:46:49,146 --> 00:46:50,155
You think that's right?
736
00:46:50,851 --> 00:46:52,381
Maybe now it's right
737
00:46:53,390 --> 00:46:54,564
No one knows anymore
738
00:47:03,411 --> 00:47:04,442
Maestro, there are...
739
00:47:05,359 --> 00:47:06,783
What else you want to know?
740
00:47:08,108 --> 00:47:10,741
I ask you: does music exist?
No?
741
00:47:11,204 --> 00:47:14,359
Then the world doesn't exist.
Only our habits do
742
00:47:14,544 --> 00:47:15,718
You may go...
743
00:47:18,824 --> 00:47:20,698
What meaning
has music today?
744
00:47:22,128 --> 00:47:25,189
You think people know
what music is?
745
00:47:26,408 --> 00:47:29,005
They consider themselves
intelligent because they feel
746
00:47:29,192 --> 00:47:31,896
....emotion in the gut.
They're participating
747
00:47:32,531 --> 00:47:35,485
Beethoven makes them feel
like knights in armor
748
00:47:37,716 --> 00:47:40,254
Some seem to be jumping out
of their seats
749
00:47:45,265 --> 00:47:47,341
When I'm conducting, I'm
always feeling ridiculous
750
00:47:49,823 --> 00:47:51,839
As if dead. I feel
like a ghost
751
00:47:52,571 --> 00:47:55,382
Better I don't say these
things. Cancel it!
752
00:47:56,329 --> 00:47:58,476
Today nothing is forgiven.
One must be...
753
00:47:58,799 --> 00:48:00,496
....always intelligent
754
00:48:01,582 --> 00:48:05,509
So let us say: music is...
....the world
755
00:48:06,001 --> 00:48:08,919
When I conduct I own
the world.
756
00:48:09,063 --> 00:48:10,343
I am a king
757
00:48:11,359 --> 00:48:14,028
You want to know really
how I feel?
758
00:48:15,291 --> 00:48:18,896
Like a sergeant who
must go kicking...
759
00:48:19,083 --> 00:48:19,735
....everybody in the ass
760
00:48:20,996 --> 00:48:23,214
But absurd laws forbid me...
761
00:48:23,397 --> 00:48:24,677
....to be a sergeant
762
00:48:26,737 --> 00:48:28,504
Certainly we have taken
advantage of
763
00:48:28,685 --> 00:48:30,038
our privileged positions
764
00:48:30,286 --> 00:48:31,294
Excuse me...
765
00:48:33,208 --> 00:48:34,382
Ach, warm as usual
766
00:48:34,948 --> 00:48:36,228
....no ice
767
00:48:38,670 --> 00:48:41,482
Talent is the child of whims
and eccentricity
768
00:48:43,889 --> 00:48:46,807
I once asked a musician
to remove his ring
769
00:48:46,986 --> 00:48:49,762
....the twinkling of the stone
bothered me
770
00:48:51,161 --> 00:48:54,565
And this seemed a caprice,
the whim of a divo
771
00:48:54,988 --> 00:48:55,996
That may even be
772
00:48:57,388 --> 00:49:00,093
But an exuberant character
for an artist
773
00:49:00,311 --> 00:49:02,944
....is a vital charge
774
00:49:03,129 --> 00:49:05,038
....for leading others,
for interpreting symphonies
775
00:49:05,912 --> 00:49:06,458
Prosit
776
00:49:11,201 --> 00:49:13,383
But now this unique charge
of the conductor
777
00:49:13,567 --> 00:49:14,361
is being contested
778
00:49:15,793 --> 00:49:16,623
The musicians?...
779
00:49:17,985 --> 00:49:19,681
....don't look at them,
don't see them
780
00:49:21,151 --> 00:49:23,618
Sometimes they have
unbearable face
781
00:49:25,952 --> 00:49:27,020
I'd put...
782
00:49:27,240 --> 00:49:29,813
....a screen in front
of some of them
783
00:49:31,032 --> 00:49:32,206
They're like wild dogs
784
00:49:33,328 --> 00:49:34,917
With wild eyes... No!
785
00:49:35,798 --> 00:49:36,866
Better cancel that too
786
00:49:38,443 --> 00:49:39,474
....or they shoot my legs
787
00:49:41,887 --> 00:49:43,963
The time of greatness
is "Kaputt"
788
00:49:47,175 --> 00:49:50,366
I remember the first time
I took my place at the podium
789
00:49:50,968 --> 00:49:53,673
My first, great impression
was...
790
00:49:53,925 --> 00:49:56,463
....the enormous silence
that fell before me
791
00:49:58,761 --> 00:50:00,184
As I signaled to begin...
792
00:50:01,231 --> 00:50:02,654
....I suddenly realized,
with great emotion,
793
00:50:03,076 --> 00:50:04,570
that my conductor's baton
794
00:50:05,510 --> 00:50:07,420
....was tied to the sound
of the orchestra
795
00:50:08,294 --> 00:50:09,824
Its voice came from within
my hand
796
00:50:11,182 --> 00:50:13,507
It would pull the orchestra
out of silence
797
00:50:13,930 --> 00:50:16,077
....and to silence make
it return
798
00:50:17,861 --> 00:50:20,364
This voice would rise...
799
00:50:20,541 --> 00:50:23,044
....like a sea wave
together with my arm
800
00:50:23,184 --> 00:50:26,031
....moving through the air
like a bird's wing
801
00:50:27,465 --> 00:50:30,975
And when my arm lowered,
this harmonic voice...
802
00:50:31,848 --> 00:50:32,987
....would fade again into
silence
803
00:50:35,709 --> 00:50:38,414
But now everyone is equal,
and I should resemble...
804
00:50:38,632 --> 00:50:40,850
....the first violinist
with his butcher's hands
805
00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:44,158
So I have fits of rage
806
00:50:45,243 --> 00:50:46,073
And buy houses
807
00:50:50,462 --> 00:50:51,221
Two in America
808
00:50:52,723 --> 00:50:54,799
One in Tokyo, in London,
and Berlin...
809
00:50:56,341 --> 00:50:58,738
In Paris, no houses.
That's because...
810
00:50:58,916 --> 00:51:02,107
I do not go along with
the music of France
811
00:51:03,056 --> 00:51:05,654
That's why, maybe,
the Customs at Orly...
812
00:51:06,222 --> 00:51:08,025
....is always frisking me
813
00:51:08,205 --> 00:51:10,566
....from head to foot
814
00:51:13,703 --> 00:51:15,849
You have your interview?
That's enough
815
00:51:18,052 --> 00:51:22,180
You say "the conductor"
but this word...
816
00:51:22,574 --> 00:51:23,439
....has no meaning anymore
817
00:51:24,905 --> 00:51:26,922
A true conductor is like
a priest
818
00:51:28,245 --> 00:51:29,834
He must have a church...
with believers
819
00:51:30,368 --> 00:51:34,567
....but when the faithful
all become
820
00:51:34,752 --> 00:51:35,688
....atheists...
821
00:51:37,082 --> 00:51:40,178
I remember Koplensky
my great maestro
822
00:51:41,188 --> 00:51:43,027
....I was first violinist
823
00:51:43,832 --> 00:51:46,049
When he took the podium,
everything was silence
824
00:51:46,859 --> 00:51:48,317
He would only look around...
825
00:51:49,050 --> 00:51:52,146
....distractedly.
But he already knew
826
00:51:52,321 --> 00:51:54,647
....every line of the score
in front of him
827
00:51:56,322 --> 00:51:58,054
He was music personified
828
00:51:59,105 --> 00:52:03,933
And we followed him happily,
with absolute reverence
829
00:52:04,115 --> 00:52:05,645
To enact the rite
of transubstantiation
830
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:08,076
....to change the wine
into blood...
831
00:52:09,196 --> 00:52:10,167
....the bread into flesh...
832
00:52:11,352 --> 00:52:12,253
You laugh?
833
00:52:13,301 --> 00:52:14,060
....I hope not
834
00:52:15,736 --> 00:52:16,768
Music is always sacred
835
00:52:18,345 --> 00:52:19,590
Every concert is a Mass
836
00:52:21,929 --> 00:52:23,661
We were enthralled,
and we...
837
00:52:25,547 --> 00:52:27,659
....would forget
all worries...
838
00:52:27,913 --> 00:52:30,689
....at the first sign
of his baton
839
00:52:30,906 --> 00:52:33,860
....We were but one breath,
we and our instruments
840
00:52:34,176 --> 00:52:36,252
....a single vital force
841
00:52:37,620 --> 00:52:38,972
He would begin!
842
00:52:40,821 --> 00:52:42,481
Nothing was more beautiful
than his authority
843
00:52:44,752 --> 00:52:45,891
We trembled...
844
00:52:47,188 --> 00:52:47,947
....at the thought
845
00:52:49,588 --> 00:52:52,221
....of a mistake
in performing this rite
846
00:52:53,868 --> 00:52:55,422
An overwhelming emotion
847
00:52:56,303 --> 00:52:57,928
....an immense happiness
848
00:52:58,843 --> 00:53:00,990
We could feel...
849
00:53:01,279 --> 00:53:04,375
....our joy transmitting
itself
850
00:53:04,862 --> 00:53:07,957
....to the audience, which was
immobile, holding its breath
851
00:53:08,689 --> 00:53:11,465
We didn't watch the conductor
it wasn't necessary
852
00:53:12,446 --> 00:53:14,320
He was there, and we knew it
853
00:53:14,743 --> 00:53:16,131
....we felt it
854
00:53:20,414 --> 00:53:22,525
He was... within us
855
00:53:24,380 --> 00:53:26,361
....so much love passed
between him and us
856
00:53:28,485 --> 00:53:30,110
A love which you can see...
857
00:53:30,991 --> 00:53:32,059
....is now lost
858
00:53:34,852 --> 00:53:37,972
I and my musicians only feel
diffidence for each other
859
00:53:39,132 --> 00:53:40,900
The doubting...
860
00:53:41,150 --> 00:53:42,289
....which destroys belief
861
00:53:43,307 --> 00:53:46,012
And then there's a lack
of respect
862
00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:48,378
There's resentment. Because
something has been lost
863
00:53:48,561 --> 00:53:50,221
....never to be found
864
00:53:54,022 --> 00:53:55,267
That's how we play together
865
00:53:57,502 --> 00:54:00,135
United by a mutual hatred
866
00:54:02,338 --> 00:54:03,867
....like a family in ruin
867
00:54:30,311 --> 00:54:32,980
Maestro, the lights have
gone out
868
00:54:33,372 --> 00:54:34,024
I know
869
00:54:34,903 --> 00:54:35,697
What now?
870
00:54:36,956 --> 00:54:38,865
The break is over,
we rehearse!
871
00:54:44,958 --> 00:54:48,113
Go ahead, walk.
Light my way
872
00:54:59,431 --> 00:55:00,605
"Conductor, conductor..."
873
00:55:01,240 --> 00:55:02,485
"Conductor, no more!"
874
00:55:03,711 --> 00:55:05,620
"You'll only conduct us
Bowed to the floor"
875
00:55:30,918 --> 00:55:33,515
Claudio... you gotta
do something
876
00:55:39,825 --> 00:55:40,761
Now, the other eye!
877
00:55:41,286 --> 00:55:42,875
Boys, what are you doing?
878
00:55:44,487 --> 00:55:45,626
....listen
879
00:55:46,226 --> 00:55:47,958
"Conductor, conductor...
Conductor, no more"
880
00:55:48,662 --> 00:55:51,200
"You'll only conduct us
Bowed to the floor"
881
00:56:07,240 --> 00:56:09,980
Conductor no more!
No conducting allowed!
882
00:56:14,163 --> 00:56:15,267
We were idiots...
883
00:56:15,938 --> 00:56:17,041
....to study
884
00:56:18,270 --> 00:56:19,515
....to spend a lifetime
in a Conservatory
885
00:56:20,113 --> 00:56:21,181
That's right!
886
00:56:22,513 --> 00:56:24,660
We don't need conductors,
don't need music
887
00:56:25,089 --> 00:56:27,829
Nothing. Just a ring...
888
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:29,433
....in our nose like savages
889
00:56:30,690 --> 00:56:33,395
Music is a public service.
It belongs to everyone
890
00:56:33,578 --> 00:56:35,238
Without class distinction
891
00:56:37,509 --> 00:56:38,754
Maestro...
892
00:56:39,527 --> 00:56:40,536
....how did this happen?
893
00:56:41,371 --> 00:56:42,995
"Conductor, conductor..."
894
00:56:43,667 --> 00:56:45,019
"Conductor no more"
895
00:56:46,137 --> 00:56:48,426
"You'll only conduct us
Bowed to the floor"
896
00:57:00,785 --> 00:57:02,802
What are you doing?
897
00:57:04,195 --> 00:57:05,226
You're crazy!
898
00:57:07,743 --> 00:57:08,229
How nice...
899
00:57:09,552 --> 00:57:10,382
....you're all sweated...
900
00:57:17,102 --> 00:57:18,870
"Conductor, Conductor..."
901
00:57:20,234 --> 00:57:21,408
What's falling here?
902
00:57:22,530 --> 00:57:25,649
What's happening?
-Worse yet, you're shifty,
903
00:57:25,695 --> 00:57:26,799
and corrupt. You've
been bought
904
00:57:26,843 --> 00:57:28,503
You signed too
905
00:57:28,758 --> 00:57:31,498
I'm reporting you the
Association. Immediately
906
00:57:31,819 --> 00:57:33,408
Down with music power!
907
00:57:34,081 --> 00:57:35,504
Down with assembly line
music!
908
00:57:36,273 --> 00:57:37,660
It's gotta stop!
909
00:57:38,569 --> 00:57:40,585
Stop!
910
00:57:47,371 --> 00:57:48,759
Take a look, what's
on my head?
911
00:57:50,711 --> 00:57:51,921
Let me taste
912
00:57:54,746 --> 00:57:56,335
What is it you want?
913
00:57:57,773 --> 00:57:59,327
Moron, it's raining!
914
00:57:59,722 --> 00:58:01,667
I'll not be insulted!
915
00:58:07,307 --> 00:58:08,315
What's he doing?
916
00:58:10,368 --> 00:58:12,480
Look at how one can
ruin his life...
917
00:58:16,144 --> 00:58:16,831
Again...
918
00:58:18,510 --> 00:58:19,020
Another?
919
00:58:24,181 --> 00:58:25,569
Down with the baton!
920
00:58:25,886 --> 00:58:27,380
Music belongs to us!
921
00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:30,858
You don't exist! Who is he?
922
00:58:31,139 --> 00:58:32,942
I ask you, who is he?
923
00:58:33,713 --> 00:58:36,703
He doesn't exist. And if
he does, he shouldn't!
924
00:58:43,803 --> 00:58:46,020
There's blood. Wretches!
Madmen!
925
00:58:46,238 --> 00:58:48,006
"You're fucked,
you're through"
926
00:58:48,187 --> 00:58:49,717
"It's all over for you"
927
00:58:51,109 --> 00:58:53,220
May I sit down for
the interview?
928
00:59:01,338 --> 00:59:02,927
I was first aware
of the harp...
929
00:59:03,739 --> 00:59:05,542
....in a dream.
I was very little
930
00:59:06,070 --> 00:59:09,024
I didn't know what
to think...
931
00:59:09,201 --> 00:59:11,597
....of that small gold cage
932
00:59:14,559 --> 00:59:16,184
One day, in a book...
933
00:59:16,264 --> 00:59:17,853
....I saw Nero, and Rome
that was burning
934
00:59:18,108 --> 00:59:21,168
....and the instrument
I had dreamt
935
00:59:22,770 --> 00:59:25,866
And then in a perfumed
calendar there was...
936
00:59:26,041 --> 00:59:29,160
....an angel flying and
he played the same harp...
937
00:59:29,485 --> 00:59:30,944
....of my dreams
938
00:59:32,025 --> 00:59:32,819
The harp!
939
00:59:33,277 --> 00:59:35,258
For me it's a human presence
940
00:59:35,956 --> 00:59:39,704
I couldn't live in a house
without a 60 harp
941
00:59:40,758 --> 00:59:42,904
I'd never fall asleep
if I didn't know...
942
00:59:43,993 --> 00:59:46,354
....it was nearby in
the next room
943
00:59:48,028 --> 00:59:50,389
At times hands seem
to run across it
944
00:59:51,404 --> 00:59:52,163
I hear it play
945
00:59:53,491 --> 00:59:54,321
....it could be the wind
946
01:00:03,476 --> 01:00:05,243
The harp is my very life
947
01:00:06,747 --> 01:00:08,585
Not only for what
I have earned
948
01:00:09,496 --> 01:00:10,990
....but it's my refuge
949
01:00:11,930 --> 01:00:12,760
....my friend
950
01:00:14,366 --> 01:00:17,284
I've always lived alone.
No men
951
01:00:18,263 --> 01:00:19,235
No one
952
01:00:20,002 --> 01:00:20,726
....only the harp
953
01:00:21,742 --> 01:00:23,402
We confide, we talk...
954
01:00:24,108 --> 01:00:26,397
....it answers me,
I receive sensations
955
01:00:26,857 --> 01:00:30,226
....fantasies... an
overwhelming sense of joy
956
01:00:30,926 --> 01:00:32,101
....and of sadness
957
01:00:33,292 --> 01:00:36,412
Mostly, it gives one...
958
01:00:36,702 --> 01:00:37,354
....faith
959
01:00:38,338 --> 01:00:39,369
You become aware...
960
01:00:39,555 --> 01:00:41,631
....that other
dimensions exist
961
01:00:46,757 --> 01:00:48,037
A child once asked:
962
01:00:48,253 --> 01:00:50,198
"Where does music go
when it's over?"
963
01:00:51,593 --> 01:00:53,289
....only a child could
ask that
964
01:00:55,072 --> 01:00:57,813
"Orchestra - terror
Conductor - death"
965
01:00:58,238 --> 01:01:01,263
"Orchestra - terror
Conductor - death"
966
01:01:01,856 --> 01:01:04,917
"Orchestra - terror
Who plays is a traitor"
967
01:01:30,282 --> 01:01:32,263
Here's our new conductor!
968
01:01:42,284 --> 01:01:43,981
Long live the Metronome!
969
01:01:45,729 --> 01:01:48,683
"Metronome metronomous...
Musicians - autonomous"
970
01:02:12,136 --> 01:02:15,018
"Musicians at last
freed from the past"
971
01:02:18,642 --> 01:02:20,825
Down with the metronome.
We'll establish...
972
01:02:20,973 --> 01:02:23,084
....the tempo, the rhythm,
the cadence
973
01:02:23,269 --> 01:02:27,124
We've had enough
of their music
974
01:02:27,375 --> 01:02:32,867
....it's degrading!
We play it, we'll create it,
975
01:02:33,045 --> 01:02:33,769
we'll manage it
976
01:02:34,681 --> 01:02:35,891
I'll not...
977
01:02:36,525 --> 01:02:38,055
....be directed by anyone!
978
01:02:38,264 --> 01:02:40,245
Death!
979
01:02:40,422 --> 01:02:41,287
....to the metronome!
980
01:03:38,385 --> 01:03:40,152
Idiot! Give me that gun
981
01:03:40,542 --> 01:03:41,372
....gimme
982
01:03:44,856 --> 01:03:47,453
You're hurting me.
I have a permit
983
01:03:48,301 --> 01:03:49,997
Look in my wallet
984
01:03:51,118 --> 01:03:52,542
All right let's see it
985
01:03:57,034 --> 01:03:58,243
....in his name
986
01:03:59,260 --> 01:04:02,629
A regular firearm permit
987
01:04:03,887 --> 01:04:04,611
Get up...
988
01:04:09,349 --> 01:04:10,144
A Smith & Wesson!
989
01:04:31,095 --> 01:04:33,764
Look up there... up there!
990
01:04:39,966 --> 01:04:40,690
Look!
991
01:04:48,907 --> 01:04:50,496
Everything's...
992
01:04:50,682 --> 01:04:51,618
....crumbling!
993
01:04:57,640 --> 01:04:58,541
Help me...
994
01:05:38,451 --> 01:05:39,245
Help me...
995
01:06:00,648 --> 01:06:01,371
Oh, why?
996
01:06:11,642 --> 01:06:12,543
....you are here...
997
01:06:14,252 --> 01:06:15,047
....and I'm here...
998
01:06:40,310 --> 01:06:42,884
Everyone must give undivided
attention to his instrument
999
01:06:45,112 --> 01:06:47,508
....that is all we can do now
1000
01:06:49,461 --> 01:06:50,920
Somebody can help me?
1001
01:06:51,653 --> 01:06:52,269
....please
1002
01:07:03,969 --> 01:07:05,523
The notes are saving us
1003
01:07:08,457 --> 01:07:09,394
Music saves us
1004
01:07:10,649 --> 01:07:11,823
Hang on to the notes
1005
01:07:15,033 --> 01:07:16,100
Follow the notes
1006
01:07:19,069 --> 01:07:20,100
....one after the other...
1007
01:07:21,852 --> 01:07:23,240
In the way my hand...
1008
01:07:24,670 --> 01:07:25,642
....can indicate
1009
01:07:28,045 --> 01:07:29,468
We are musicians...
1010
01:07:31,664 --> 01:07:33,431
You are musicians...
1011
01:07:45,893 --> 01:07:46,687
....and we're here
1012
01:07:47,667 --> 01:07:48,213
....to rehearse
1013
01:08:00,018 --> 01:08:02,165
Have no fear.
The rehearsal continues
1014
01:08:03,289 --> 01:08:04,261
To your places!
1015
01:08:05,168 --> 01:08:06,069
In place, please
1016
01:08:10,838 --> 01:08:11,562
....thank you...
1017
01:11:05,946 --> 01:11:08,342
You must do less coloring
with sounds
1018
01:11:08,764 --> 01:11:11,125
Noise is not music
1019
01:11:11,721 --> 01:11:13,453
Not a trolley car,
I heard pots and pans
1020
01:11:13,809 --> 01:11:15,683
Where are we?
1021
01:11:16,557 --> 01:11:19,856
....one a soccer field?
You think I'm an umpire?
1022
01:11:21,011 --> 01:11:22,814
And where has
the brass gone?
1023
01:11:23,203 --> 01:11:25,147
What's happened to
your little lungs?
1024
01:11:26,508 --> 01:11:27,896
Where is all your breath?
1025
01:11:28,769 --> 01:11:30,322
....used it for
stupid chatter?
1026
01:11:31,309 --> 01:11:32,412
Sustain the notes!
1027
01:11:45,991 --> 01:11:47,723
Gentlemen... DA CAPO!
