:34:01
You will heed it with the same
:34:05
deference you would me.
:34:09
What you just played corresponds to
:34:12
a tempo like this.
:34:20
Each day, as we progress
we shall push down this little ball one notch.

:34:26
Until finally, in 3 weeks,
:34:29
you'll be playing like this.
:34:35
The world will be yours.
:34:38
You see, Antoinette,
there's something I still don't understand.

:34:43
His violin has a wonderful sound,
:34:46
and a lovely form.
:34:48
Of course, it's Italian.
:34:50
Is it very valuable?
:34:54
Why do you ask?
:34:55
Well, it could pay the rent, if ever...
:34:58
He will play divinely, my dear.
:35:02
Can't you trust me?
:35:04
Yes, of course I can.
:35:07
But must he sleep with it?
:35:08
He could roll over on it.
:35:11
What?
:35:12
He sleeps with it?
:35:15
Straight, proud. Lift your chin. There.
:35:17
Perfect, your bow. You're clutching.
:35:21
Your body's stiff, your elbow's locked.
:35:24
I knew something was holding you back.
:35:27
Something, but I didn't know what.
:35:29
Now it's totally clear.
:35:32
You're oppressed by your violin.
:35:34
It has you completely
:35:35
enslaved. Look at you. There, very good.
:35:42
If you want to advance, Kaspar Weiss,
:35:44
you must let go.
:35:47
What do you mean, sir? I don't understand.
:35:52
Antoinette tells me you sleep with your violin.
:35:57
Tonight you'll sleep by yourself.
