:52:14
What do you mean?
:52:16
These operas Handel composes
in three weeks...
:52:18
are an insult
to his audience.
:52:20
- Who spread this slander?
- Rumors.
:52:23
Rumors that you stop
to peddle, sir!
:52:26
- Have you heard these operas, sir?
- You're joking, young lady.
:52:30
That would be treason.
We never attend Covent Garden.
:52:33
I have heard them. They surpass
anything one hears anywhere else.
:52:38
I can't imagine Handel's work
surpasses Maestro Porpora's work.
:52:43
Or that of Signor Broschi.
:52:45
You're an ass, sir.
You don't deserve to have ears!
:52:49
Long after posterity
has forgotten...
:52:52
that you ever lived...
:52:54
it will preserve Handel's name
with infinite respect.
:52:58
Your conceited attitude...
:53:00
is an insult
to all musicians.
:53:03
I'd like to erase from my memory
this cursed day...
:53:06
when I sang for you!
:53:41
You're cheating, Carlo.
:53:43
He always cheated.
:53:47
He can't stand to lose.
:53:49
Neither can I.
:53:52
But I don't cheat.
:53:57
I taught you how to sing,
Carlo Broschi.
