August 16 Information
Youtube clip of what looks like a German movie with Czech subtitles. The clip shows a piano competition between Mozart and Franz Ignaz von Beecke. What is the movie? Thanks. 2601:648:8201:5DD0:0:0:0:34C5 ( talk) 07:45, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- I think it's
Mozart - Ich hätte München Ehre gemacht (2006). ---

- Based on a real event: "In 1775, von Beecke met the 19-year-old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Munich and the two engaged in a piano playing competition at the well-known inn Zum Schwarzen Adler", according to our article on von Beecke.

- Yes, I saw that in the von Beecke article. It was interesting that in the movie, Mozart won the competition. There is yet another account of the story in one of Mozart's letters home to his father: see
here.

- I don't know whether you'd noticed, but in that movie Beecke is played by
Siegfried Mauser, a pianist and musicologist, not a professional actor. ---

Xaver Hutter, a professional actor not known for his musical abilities, so a stand-in pianist may have been used for the close-ups of Mozart's hands playing the keyboard. --

What do you call a TV or radio programme that is recorded to be broadcast only if something goes wrong with the scheduled programming?
Hi, I just created de:Havarieprogramm and wanted to know if English Wikipedia has something about this phenomenon as well: Some TV or radio stations prepare programming that is broadcast in case e.g. a someone in a live show faints, or if a live broadcast fails due to a technical mishap, or in a similar situation. Thank you! -- Gnom ( talk) 15:05, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- There is not a specific word or term in English, though if it were described as a "replacement program" or something like that, people would understand what you were saying. -- Jayron 32 15:39, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- In the UK they'll normally just show a random repeat of some sitcom or other. Shantavira| feed me 17:44, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

- If something goes wrong during a live show, they usually just cut to a commercial. The host says "we'll be right back" and the studio crew knows to cut away immediately. The guest could just be doing something embarassing rather than fainting.

- Cutting to a commercial would be quite impossible on the BBC (just as an example)....
