00:04It's easier with the lips slightly wet.
00:10In through the nose.
00:13Out through the mouth.
00:14Remember, each breath is a bridge to another breath.
00:18Each breath is a bridge.
00:21All right, Duncan. I think that's enough for today.
00:29Duncan, listen to me.
00:31Yes, Ms. Rutledge?
00:32Tomorrow is a really important day, okay? For both of us.
00:35Everyone's coming. Your grandmother is coming.
00:38So, can you do me a really big favor, please?
00:42Try and practice before bed.
00:44Just a little.
00:45I will, certainly.
00:47Um, did your mom leave a check?
00:49Oh, yeah.
01:01Ew.
01:04No, no.
01:10He's been a good boy.
01:19He's got a big into the house.
01:20The end of the house is only a town.
01:20One of us is a town hall.
01:21He's got a great job.
01:21He's got a great job.
01:21He's got a great job.
01:21And we really need to join us.
01:22He's got a great job.
01:22He's got a great job.
01:22He's got a great job.
01:23You're all good, man.
01:24And we'll do another job.
01:27He's got a great job.
02:20Thank you so much.
02:31A safe trip to Beijing tonight.
02:34Well, as most of you know, tonight's concert marks the final performance that I shall give as the conductor of
02:45this very fine voice.
02:47Thank you. Thank you.
02:51Now, just because you won't see me here, it doesn't mean to say that I won't be here. In fact,
02:57it's just the opposite.
02:58I have gratefully accepted the newly minted role of executive musical director emeritus, whatever the hell that means.
03:09Now, before I do go, I would just like to say a heartfelt thanks to some very special people here
03:17tonight.
03:17They are my colleagues, my friends, my family.
03:25They are the men and women of your symphony.
03:29Please.
03:35And now, will you please warmly welcome the woman behind the curtain, the board chairperson herself, Mrs. Gloria Windsor. Thank
03:45you.
03:48Good evening, good evening, and thank you, Thomas, for everything.
03:56And so, as one movement ends, another must begin.
04:04It is my honor to introduce to you someone special.
04:11At 12 years old, he was the youngest person to ever win the Mahler Award for Young Conductors.
04:18At 23, he conducted at La Scala.
04:22At 25, he lifted the Oslo Symphony out of bankruptcy and placed them amongst the finest on the world stage.
04:32He has been courted by Boston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Munich, and we got him.
04:45Please join me in welcoming a man who need only be introduced by his first name, your new conductor and
04:54musical director, Rodrigo.
05:17I love you.
05:19I love you.
05:20I love you.
05:20I love you.
05:21I love you.
05:22I love you.
05:22I love you.
05:23I love you.
05:24I love you.
05:25I love you.
05:25I love you.
05:26I love you.
05:26I love you.
05:26I love you.
05:27I love you.
05:27I love you.
05:28I love you.
05:29I love you.
05:30I love you.
05:31I love you.
05:32I love you.
05:34I love you.
05:39I love you.
05:43I love you.
05:47I love you.
05:49I love you.
05:50I really don't know how it is, you know.
05:51I love you.
05:52Does he also do children's parties?
05:55I think he's amazing.
05:57That was a great performance tonight, maestro.
06:00Look, Groyer, I love you.
06:02But don't ever underestimate me.
06:05Darling, I think you go to the same hairdresser.
06:10So I'm playing this rich bitch gig in Sag Harbor,
06:12and the hostess has worked my shaft, my balls,
06:14my shaft, my balls,
06:15and I'm totally fucking hammered off
06:16of six glasses of Riesling,
06:17and then I pass out.
06:18Night, boys.
06:19Night.
06:20Night, Cynthia.
06:20And then...
06:23Hey, sexy.
06:24You going downtown?
06:25Oh, I'm sorry, Cynthia.
06:26I'm going uptown.
06:27Shit.
06:28I've got to be in Times Square in ten minutes.
06:30Two a night.
06:31Oh, oh, I remember those days.
06:34Here, you take it.
06:35You're fantastic.
06:40Broadway in 48.
06:41Well, Bruno, she played you beautifully.
06:44Ah, bellissima, eh?
06:47Thomas, darling.
06:48Over here.
06:52Have a good night.
06:53Yes.
06:53Good night, maestro.
06:55Maestro.
06:55What?
06:56What's this?
06:57The press release.
06:58Oh, yeah.
06:58They'll need a quote from you.
06:59Somehow we missed out on the plot of hope, but we'll try best that we can to carry on.
07:19Oh, well, I'm sorry.
07:21I'm gone.
07:22Oh, well, I need a quote from you.
07:30Oh, my God, my baser.
07:33On the on the face we're raging.
07:40Come sail away, come sail away with me!
08:03Cynthia, you're killing me.
08:05If it wasn't for this pretty young lady, tonight would've been a disaster.
08:09I owe you.
08:10May I offer you a ride home?
08:12Easy, Bernard.
08:13What's your name?
08:14I'm Haley.
08:15Haley, you're coming with me.
08:16Okay.
08:17Deborah.
08:18You're welcome.
08:19For what?
08:20It's keeping Bernard out of your pants.
08:22I thought I knew every oboist in town.
08:24I'm Cynthia.
08:25Cynthia Taylor, I know.
08:26You're a second cello in the New York Symphony.
08:28It's a real honor.
08:29You drink, I hope.
08:33To Rodrigo!
08:34Thank you!
08:35I just love these ideas.
08:37They're so fresh, so innovative.
08:39Now I can see you.
08:43Thomas.
08:44I'm so glad you came.
08:46Can we get a glass of champagne?
08:47It won't be necessary.
08:48I won't be staying that long.
08:55Is this a joke?
09:00Under the guidance of our new conductor,
09:05Rodrigo D'Souza,
09:06our coming season will feature some of the surprising highlights,
09:09such as turning off the house lights
09:12and playing selected pieces in complete darkness.
09:17We hired Rodrigo to bring new ideas,
09:20a youthful point of view.
09:21You were in on the decision.
09:24You continue to be in on every decision that we made.
09:26What next?
09:27Bring a pet to the symphony day.
09:30Our subscribers, they're not going to stand for...
09:32Oh, put that champagne down, Sergeant Pepper.
09:36Champagne is for celebrating.
09:38And I don't consider the erosion
09:40of a magnificent institution like this.
09:43Stop being so dramatic.
09:46I'm going to go.
09:48Thank you, Gloria.
09:51It's been lovely, maestro.
09:53Lord.
09:54Have you got anything to say for yourself?
09:58In English, preferably.
10:13Emily Wu, the first violin,
10:16she played sharp 17 times in the first movement alone.
10:21And then the horns came a bar late,
10:23which completely threw off the clarinet,
10:25and we weren't able to perceive Tchaikovsky's desired dynamic shift
10:28from bars 27 to 34.
10:31I'm Bruno.
10:33Bruno Cassell.
10:34The bass player.
10:36He's old.
10:38He can barely hold his bow.
10:42I don't know who you were torturing more.
10:44Me or him.
10:51You prick.
10:56Changes will be made.
11:00And maestro, I hope I don't disappoint you
11:03or the values of this great institution.
11:10Haley Rutledge Obois.
11:12Yeah, that's my parents' idea of a Christmas present, so...
11:15I don't like the drawing.
11:16All right, so I have On the Rocks for you.
11:19Oh, thank you.
11:20And a neat for you.
11:23And actually, um, this round's going to be on me.
11:26Well, thank you.
11:26Yeah, of course.
11:27My pleasure.
11:28Thanks.
11:32Cute ass, right?
11:35Totally.
11:36I bet as a dancer, they're the best.
11:39The best?
11:40Anecdotal evidence and my personal scientific research
11:43suggests there's a direct correlation
11:45between what a man does for a living and the way he fucks.
11:49Violinists, for example.
11:51Yeah.
11:52Come on.
11:53They tend to come quickly.
11:54It's all those arpeggios.
11:56Yeah.
12:01Percussionists pound you like you're in a porno.
12:07Kind of fun for about ten minutes.
12:10Good cardio.
12:12What about, um...
12:14Pianists, tricky.
12:16Typically, they fall into two general groups,
12:18jazz and classical.
12:19I go for jazz.
12:20Bye.
12:23Improvisation.
12:24They play off you.
12:26Also, they're into ensembles.
12:36What about, um...
12:38Conductors?
12:40Too complicated.
12:42Hayley,
12:44a woe is to a rare commodity these days.
12:46Strings, on the other hand,
12:48were like hyenas fighting over the same dead animal.
12:51You're really good.
12:54Okay, so can I get you anything else, ladies?
12:56Your name.
12:58Excuse me?
12:59Your name, Skinny Jeans.
13:01I'm Alex.
13:03You look like a dancer, Alex.
13:04Am I right?
13:05Yeah, I am actually.
13:07Ballet.
13:08I'm training at Juilliard.
13:09Alex, Hayley.
13:10Hayley, Alex.
13:11Hayley is a noblerist from North Carolina.
13:14Alex is a ballet dancer here in New York.
13:16Nice to meet you.
13:17Yeah, yeah, you too, Hayley.
13:23Listen, I better be going.
13:24Why don't you sit down and the two of you chat a while?
13:26Oh, well, actually, we could probably share a cab, so...
13:29No, I'm not taking a cab, but I'll call you.
13:31Stay in touch.
13:32Change or...
13:33Have a fantastic time.
13:34Oh, thank you.
13:35It's all good.
13:36Your friend's awesome.
13:37It's like, what does a $40 tip?
13:39Yeah.
13:44You don't actually have to stay here and talk to me.
13:47Well, hey, you know, I'm actually about to get off.
13:49A bunch of us are probably going to go out later.
13:51You want to come with?
13:52Oh, I'd love that.
13:53I just, um, I have to get up so early.
13:57Oh, yeah.
13:58Yeah.
13:59All right, well, um, that's cool.
14:01Enjoy your drink and...
14:02Drinks.
14:02Drinks.
14:03Plural.
14:03Yeah.
14:14This is a $350,000 cello, you asshole.
14:17Get in.
14:18Don't treat me like a hooker.
14:20I shouldn't have taught you how to text.
14:22Pop it.
14:24My whole world is falling apart.
14:30He's good, isn't he?
14:34Oh, well, don't tell me you wouldn't fuck him.
14:37Oh, please.
14:38Is this the kind of night it's going to be?
14:41Let me out.
14:43Forget that.
14:44Keep going.
14:47If you have to ask the question, you already know the answer.
14:50Yes, he's good.
14:52He's a monster.
14:53He's making cuts.
14:57Woodwinds and brass.
14:59For now.
15:00The Union will have something to say about that.
15:03You can't just come and install your friends.
15:05Oh, I doubt he has any friends.
15:08I was him once.
15:10You still are.
15:19Let's get these eggs!
15:28Oh, shit, look who's got here.
15:31This party's about to get fucked up!
15:37You've got to try my new invention.
15:47I call it the ganja gnome.
15:49Nice.
15:50Okay.
15:51I'm going to go to bed.
15:52Oh, just stay up a while.
15:53Have a drink.
15:54Relax.
15:54You know, go fucking ape shit.
15:55You go fucking ape shit.
15:57I am fucking ape shit.
15:59Listen, hot guys are on their way over.
16:00You want me to save you one?
16:01No.
16:02Well, there's a flutist out here, and he wants to play you in Showdown, and he thinks he's
16:06awesome, but I think you can destroy him.
16:08No.
16:09He said the oboe was an undernourished clarinet.
16:11Fuck you, love you.
16:12Good night, Lizzie.
16:14Ellie!
16:15Ellie!

18:50Oh!
18:53Yes!
18:55I gotta put pants on.
19:04Shit.
19:06How do I look?
19:07Try any train wreck?
19:08No, you look fine.
19:09You look totally fine.
19:11Why?
19:12These dancers are here.
19:13One of them, Alex Merriweather, my friend says he's, like, the hottest thing at Juilliard.
19:18I'm gonna seduce him.
19:21So, yeah, I was, like, it's been incredibly hard since my boyfriend died.
19:25I've been really lonely.
19:27Hey.
19:28Hi.
19:29Is it, uh, cool if I join you guys in here?
19:30Yeah, I'm Lizzy.
19:32This is my place.
19:32It's my roommate.
19:34Hey.
19:35Yeah, we met.
19:37I'm sorry about your boyfriend.
19:39That's, that's horrible.
19:40How'd he die?
19:41Bubonic plague.
19:42I got it too, but I made it.
19:47Lizzy, you better get in here.
19:49It's kind of an emergency.
19:51Vomit in your Victrola.
19:52Oh, fuck!
19:53That's an antique!
19:55Most Victrolas are antique.
19:56I'm just gonna pure all this bitch right quick and, um, I'll find you.
20:11What's up?
20:12Oh, no thanks.
20:14Smoke is the enemy.
20:15Oh.
20:16Shit.
20:17Sorry.
20:19Oh, it's freezing.
20:20Oh, here.
20:23So, so you play just, like, unbelievably well.
20:27Thanks.
20:30North Carolina, right?
20:32Yeah, I'm from Nashville.
20:34So, that's kind of close, I guess.
20:37Yeah.
20:38Yeah.
20:40Kind of.
20:49It's a pretty overwhelming place, huh?
20:53Totally.
20:55I feel like all I spend my time doing is, like, figuring out how to make money and then figuring
21:02out how to be a good roommate and good daughter and, like, none of it is about the art.
21:07Okay.
21:09So, when I'm successful...
21:10You think it'll be easier?
21:11It better be.
21:16You know, I've always wondered something.
21:21Do your lips hurt after you play like that?
21:25Um, I mean, they used to, but now I guess they're, like, kind of used to being used, so...
21:41That shit was fucking disgusting.
21:45And Hank had an accident on your bed, too.
21:48Oh, shit.
21:50Uh, thanks for your scarf.
21:52Sorry.
21:57It's freezing outside my apartment.
22:00I feel like my tits are gonna fall off.
22:03Cause they're frozen.
22:06I brought that?
22:22What the fuck, Maury?
22:25What the fuck?
22:42I sound horrible. I suck.
22:44But I practiced last night. I focused on my breathing like you said.
22:47Duncan, shut up. Just, just shut up. Get me a glass of water.
22:52I'm extremely hungover and I'm not proud of it.
22:57Okay.
22:58Okay.
22:59I know.
23:02Each breath is a bridge to another breath.
23:05Hayley, it's Cynthia.
23:07I don't care what the hell you're doing right now.
23:09Drop it and get over to the Symphony Hall.
23:11Rodrigo is holding auditions.
23:12They're seeing woodwinds until 11.
23:14You didn't hear it from me.
23:16I can't fucking believe this is happening.
23:19Uh, okay. Where were we?
23:21Hayley, go.
23:24You can sneak out through the service elevator.
23:26What about your mom?
23:27I'm not afraid of her.
23:29But anyway, if you get that job, she'll brag to everybody that her son takes lessons from the oboist or
23:33the New York Symphony.
23:34Get out of here.
23:37Bye.
23:38Bye.
24:02What do you think?
24:10I, I...
24:11Perfect, right?
24:12Yes.
24:15Next.
24:17Grazie.
24:46Write this down.
24:48I want a turkey sandwich.
24:51With no mayonnaise.
24:54What does it say?
24:56Turkey sandwich with no mayonnaise?
24:59Okay.
25:29Next.
25:31It's over, sir.
25:38Eh?
25:39No.
25:39No.
25:40Oh, my God.
26:09Fuck.
26:43Fuck.
26:50Fuck.
26:52Fuck.
27:03Fuck.
27:05Fuck.
27:06Fuck.
27:09Fuck.
27:21Fuck.
27:23Fuck.
27:24Fuck.
