What is the name of the piece at 4:38?

[kaiserkill]

@Artemisia494 string quartet op.131 mvt 7

[Artemisia494]

@kaiserkill wow thanks for the quick reply! I have been trying to know its name for a long time now, it came up in the movie copying Beethoven by Ed Harris as well.

[JJHdisney]

5:05 If you have headphones and you jacked up the volume to 100%...Watch out!

[yutethebeaute]

Holy Crap... Paul Rhys is giving his 110% to this documentary reenactment. It's haunting, extraordinary and profoundly touching.

[Mozartstavanger]

When this clip (1/7) stopped I just wanted to shout out: "For God sake women, NOT NOW!!"

[Cs82Hun]

Could bare 6 mins of this wonderful acting..

[bbronxx]

[MIKEYPOOHBEARJACKSON]

that poor lady all she was doing was giving them something to drink incase they needed it.

[Leana70]

good actor playing lvb, however, the composer was a short man. this dude is on the tall side...

[violakeenan12]

Fantastic performance from the actor of Beethoven!

[jporter91]

for god's sake woman!

[SPQRImperator]

@jporter91 lol Poor lady.

[infidel94]

if beethoven ever wanted to adopt me, I would assassinate the judge if he said no

[SPQRImperator]

@infidel94 lol You and me both.

[aemngiignmea]

To see the premiere of Beethoven's ninth symphony, youtube search:

Ode To Joy (the premiere of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony)

[kuglagerfeld]

This is ridiculous interpretation of B. life

[DrivenUpTheWall1]

Can i ask a question.. was beethoven slightly retarded or just bad acting?

[CheekyVimto08]

if a brilliant composer wanted to adopt me i'd have been like yeah cool

[EdwardWhelanPiano]

Beethoven needs to take some weed and chill out!

[davidlabelle361]

Dude, kudos to the guy playing Beethoven. He has hit the nail on head.

From all that I've read about the kick ass composer, This actor seems to be doing

a great job.

[metteholm75]

Yes, I´ve seen a few Beethovens, but this one is the best.

[andrychan]

what a wonderful actor!!!!!! I love how he plays Beethoven's role

[oscarconroy14]

@andrychan I completely agree.

[firefws]

What piece is played at beginning? thanks

[kaiserkill]

the third movement from the Hammerklavier sonata, perhaps the greatest adagio of all times..

[dalecampbl7]

@kaiserkill pundits said Beethoven called it a "mausoleum of sorrow"

[EttasFavourites]

Deeply touching....

An excellent serial to look into Beethoven's soul, to meet the man Beethoven, with his light and dark side, to become the divine one, finally....

Maybe it is that deeply human inbeing, which is present in all his compositions, and which is recognizable for all human beings as a part of their own heart and soul, and why he is beloved all over the world, and why only he could write the "Alle Menschen werden Brüder"....

[EttasFavourites]

Listening to that composition we feel that we ARE brothers.... It is a spiritual journey for all souls into the sphere where we are all One....

[brenonion]

when i listen to the ode to joy i picture the good willed people of the world singing it together for all the universe to hear... its the quintessential expression of human brotherhood to me

[EttasFavourites]

Beautifully spoken.................!

[thegoddescomposer]

thanks u sir , ^^

[thegoddescomposer]

plz tell me the piece on 4.00 sounds veryy beauitfull

[kaiserkill]

The Gloria from Missa Solemnis op.123.

[SecuraOberonis]

I have read numerous biographies concerning the life of Ludwig van Beethoven, including the highly regarded one by Barry Cooper, and none them include any evidence that Beethoven ever struck or was physically violent towards his nephew in anyway. He was NEVER physically abusive towards Karl.

[jackjiezhang]

this is all dramatized and all but pushing the kid on the floor is hardly physical abuse.

[alblahblah]

Simply astounding. Thankyou for posting this.
