Love how the author throws all subtlety to the dogs with the choice of the conductor's name. Furtwängler? At the helm of the Berliner Philharmoniker? Seriously? Is he gonna be depicted as a specialist in Beethoven next?

Wilhelm Furtwängler was one of the greatest conductors in the history of recorded classical music. He was long associated with the Berliner Philharmoniker, and an authority on Beethoven, having studied musical theory under Heinrich Schenker.
