Impromptu

1:37:02

The "Études" are published. I didn’t know.

1:37:04

Let’s have a listen.

1:37:06

Could you take those downstairs for me?
And this trunk has to go.

1:37:11

(starts playing)

1:37:13

Franz, Chopin’s going out.

1:37:19

We’ll come with you so we can talk.

1:37:24

I’m going to meet Madame Sand.

1:37:29

- This is wonderful!
- You play it better than I.

1:37:32

You’re going on a trip?

1:37:35

Franz!

1:37:37

Chopin is going to meet Madame Sand.

1:37:40

Franz thinks you’re making a mistake.
He’s in a position to caution you.

1:37:44

He once had his own experience
with George.

1:37:47

- Marie, I told you nothing happened.
- So you love to claim.

1:37:51

You must listen to him,
because, one way or another,

1:37:54

Franz knows exactly who she is.

1:37:57

"(George)" I’ve always wanted to know.

1:38:04

See here, darling.
Chopin has dedicated the "Études" to you.

1:38:10

To me?

1:38:15

It is a tremendous honour.
What did you do to deserve it, I wonder?

1:38:22

Marie is an angel of inspiration.

1:38:29

It’s good to see you, Franz.

1:38:31

You should come back
to Paris more often.

1:38:34

We all get into such trouble
when you’re away.

1:38:42

Where are you taking him?

1:38:44

For a long time now I have blamed myself
for your unhappiness and suffering.

1:38:50

And when I think
of the music I might have written

1:38:53

if not for the guilt which has
murdered my vitality all these years!

1:38:58

But Chopin has seen
a happier side of you, it seems.
