. . . .

And "Copying Beethoven" (Copying Beethoven) is so full of passion and vitality, full of wisdom. Every word is philosophical and powerful. Watching a movie like this is a great lesson. Although the heroine Anna is also a fictional character, it is never quite real. Her dialogue with Beethoven, or more precisely, Beethoven's dialogue with her, shows her understanding of life, art and the mind everywhere.

Beethoven himself said that his mind was thinking about music all the time, every moment he was thinking, thinking about music that touched his soul. "Music is the only language God can understand," he said. Therefore, he has been working hard to perfect his music and create new musical styles. God was absolutely unfair to Beethoven. For such a person who has been endowed with all musical talents by God, God has made him unable to hear the music he created and the applause of others. In fact, he didn't expect to hear a lot of plaudits (though most of the plaudits came from the heart), only more criticism. This in itself is an injustice, the injustice of fate. However, each person's attitude towards injustice is different.

It is impossible for everyone to face a very fair world. This is just like the character played by Tony Leung in "The Wounded City", his family was killed since he was a child. But how does he choose? ! Violation of the principle of "love", even if it achieves its purpose, is also a tragedy. One of the words Beethoven often uses in "Copying Beethoven" is "soul". Make music with the soul, even if the ear can't hear it, it won't complain about unfairness.

A close classmate called me last night and said she was broken up (note: they are now married.). I just texted her back today. Loving someone is not owning, and the world is not unfair to anyone, despite being materially different. We pin our hopes of making ourselves happy on others, and when others say "NO" to ourselves, we feel the pain of death. We shouldn't live for others, should our happiness come from others? If you give your heart, even if there is no return, it is an experience. No one will be smooth sailing, and feelings cannot be forced. The pain of loss makes people realize the greatness of "love" even more.

    Only for the symphony of destiny.

    Seeing the title, I thought it was another person's story, but the protagonist was still Beethoven. Ode to Joy is really exciting to hear. It is obvious that the blood in my veins does not seem to be flowing, but is tumbling forward and rushing like a sea wave~~

Copying Beethoven quotes

  • Ludwig van Beethoven: I'm a very difficult person, Anna Holtz, but I take comfort in the fact that God made me that way.

  • Ludwig van Beethoven: [conclusion--Beethoven is describing his "Song of Thanks to the Deity"] No key. It's common time, molto adagio, sotto voce. First violin, quarter notes. Middle C up to A. Measure. G up to C, tied, F. Second violin, bar two. Middle C up to A. Double note E, G, C. Viola clef, 2B pressed. It's a hymn of thanksgiving to God, for sparing me to finish my work. After the pianissimo, the canon resumes. First violin takes the theme. Viola, C to A. It's growing, gaining strength. Second violin, C to A, an octave higher. Then the struggle. First violin, C, up an octave, and then up to G. And the cello, down. Pulled down. Half notes, F, E, D. Pulled constantly down. And then, a voice, a single frail voice emerges, soaring above the sound. The striving continues, moving below the surface. Crescendo. First violin longing, pleading to God. And then, God answers. The clouds open. Loving hands reach down. We're raised up into heaven. Cello remains earthbound, but the other voices soar suspended, for an instant in which you can live forever. Earth does not exist. Time is timeless. And the hands that lifted you caress your face, mold them to the face of God. And you are at one. You are at peace. You're finally free.
