does anyone know what piece is being played in the last like 40 seconds of the video?

@RedSoxWSAgain If its of any help, the only recognizable piece of music in the entire video ( including the last 40 seconds ) seems to be Ein Heldenleben by Richard Strauss.

I wonder if anyone slept their way into a position with the Berlin Philharmonic?

@kentusmaximus even if they did it doesn't mean they will be playing there permanently

I really enjoyed this film (watched at the Vancouver Film Festival). This project has brought light to the mystery behind closed doors. Danke! Looking forward to a sequel.

As for those who may think and stray far far away from "classical music" and the conservation of culture takes money.

Yes it does takes money, it also takes much effort and an open mind to accept ones culture/s.

One of the concept of this film is how two very distinct cultures coming together with a common love.... for music.

economics plays a major part...opening up a recording market in mainland Asia is going to become even more important for orchestra musicians in Europe and the US...just look at the move the LA Philharmonic made in appointing Dudamel, you can't tell me the prospect of opening a potentially profitable recording market in Venezuela wasn't a BIG factor in his appointment, no matter if he is Karajan or not.

To conserve culture you need money!

and that's what i'm saying, i just find the trailer to this film kind of cheesy, as if it's a VH1 reality show!
