@LaMortEtLamour What is wrong with you? Spitting out so many insults...they merely stated the fact that Germany was not feudal at this time anymore. An emperor has nothing to do with that. Feudalism ended, as they said, centuries before this. You can't just make up your own definition of feudalism.

"[Michael Umlauf, the theatre's Kapellmeister and director of this performance] had watched as the composer's attempt to conduct a dress rehearsal of his opera Fidelio ended in disaster. So this time, he instructed the singers and musicians to ignore the almost completely deaf Beethoven. /.../ Based on the testimony of the participants, there are suggestions that it was under-rehearsed (there were only two full rehearsals) and rather scrappy in execution." "Beethoven himself conducted, that is, he stood in front of a conductor's stand and threw himself back and forth like a madman. At one moment he stretched to his full height, at the next he crouched down to the floor, he flailed about with his hands and feet as though he wanted to play all the instruments and sing all the chorus parts. -The actual direction was in Duport's hands; we musicians followed his baton only." --Joseph Böhm, violinist "When the audience applauded /.../ Beethoven was several bars off and still conducting. Because of that, the contralto Caroline Unger walked over and turned Beethoven around to accept the audience's cheers and applause."

Ed Harris played this role the right way, he couldn’t hear much with prosthetic ears, he was almost in silence throughout the filming of this movie. He wanted to be authentic about Beethoven. It was brilliantly portrayed. Bravo Beethoven!!!!!
@1tboАй бұрын
Harris didn't write or direct this scene, so he had no say about whether it was "authentic," which it isn't. Beethoven did not conduct the Vienna premiere of the 9th Synphony. He could not have. He was deaf. Michael Umlauf conducted the performance. At the beginning of each section of the symphony, Beethoven, who sat by the stage, gave the tempos, the function this movie gives to a young woman (in the choir?), who somehow knows the score of a complex and groundbreaking work, which she cannot possibly have ever heard, well enough to direct Beethoven himself in leading it. Pure Hollywood. No grounding in reality. Beethoven being a 20th-century-style conductor despite his deafness is an invention by the screenwriter. The part about Beethoven being turned around to see the applause he couldn't hear is the only part that's supported by contemporary accounts.

Como el dijo al principio de la escena "ahora la musica cambiara para siempre"....y cambio. Nadie habia incorporado musica coral en una sinfonia del modo en que el lo hizo. En la ultima parte, el tempo, el frenesi al dirigir....la camara tiembla, como si aquella musica fuese capaz de hacer temblar la tierra...es un toque sencillamente genial. Bach fue el padre de la musica tal y como la conocemos, Mozart uno de los mas grandes compositores, y Beethoven el que rompio las reglas establecidas y que dio un giro radical a la musica. Para mi hay claramente un antes y un despues de Beethoven...

Either at various points or only at the finale (not clear from the accounts) he came onto stage and "helped" the conductor, Michael Umlauf, to indicate expression or tempo to the orchestra. His role was more like what the fictional Anna Holz character does here. The orchestra had been told to ignore him. He was on stage when the piece finished and the alto Caroline Unger, turned him to the audience so he could see their applause.

This is without a shadow of a doubt one of the if not the most uplifting, sensual, beautiful haunting, sad and triumphant scenes I’ve seen in film. While it barely treads water against the powerhouse of Oldmans performance, for me this defines everything that cinema should be. The voice to the human soul and a reflection of all that is humanity in its naked glory.

I bought my first record at age 12. It was Beethoven's 3rd, the Eroica. I thought this man was the god of music with his alternating boldness with delicacy. I visited his home in Bonn, Germany, where his various horn hearing aids are still on display. Such extraordinary brilliance from a deaf man at that.

Bravo, maestro. My friends always laugh at me because every single moment i hear this piece I cry like a baby, i cant avoid it, its so beautiful and sublim everything, has every emotions that anyone would like to have, but like Kurt used to say "they laugh at me because Im different, I laugh at them cause they're all equal" I love Beethoven and I would never regret the tattoo of his sign in my arm.

Arturo, not that you far from a major point about the pinnacle of achievement in music, but please do listen to Handel's Messiah, final movement: Worthy is the Lamb. I am a composer. I've studied both the 9th and the Messiah for all their intricacies. Both are equals, no question about that. Please turn up your speakers (or, better yet, put on headphones), turn out the lights, lay back in bed, and let the end of the Messiah - Worthy is the Lamb - transport you. You will see that you end up in the very same heavenly spot as you do with the 9th. Peace, brother.

como ejercicio cinematográfico es MAGISTRAL. Si se pudiese filmar la emoción de todos los asistentes al estreno de la 9ª, sería así. Los planos, la ejecución, la mirada del público. Como Beethoven le ha trasmitido a ella su obra, para que ella se la trasmita a él para poder dirigir pese a su sordera. Y ese final donde Beethoven no sabe si su obra ha gustado o no, por estar de espaldas y ser sordo. Esto es cine, saber manejar tus emociones. Recomiendo a todos ver esta película

Funeral oration by Franz Grillparzer: "We who stand here at the grave of the deceased are in a sense the representatives of an entire nation, the whole German people, come to mourn the passing of one celebrated half of that which remained to us from the vanished brilliance of the fatherland. The hero of poetry in the German language and tongue still lives -- and long may he live. But the last master of resounding song, the gracious mouth by which music spoke, the man who inherited and increased the immortal fame of Handel and Bach, of Haydn and Mozart, has ceased to be; and we stand weeping over the broken strings of an instrument now stilled".
