The Moment (Narration)

(BEETHOVEN)
 In this world of curmumstance
 Children never fear forever
 And this moment that enchants
 Someday we may both remember
 Then
 Maybe then
 If we are still alive
 Then
 Maybe then
 This moment will survive
 There is time in every word
 There are words in every reason
 And these notes that are unheard
 One day they may find their season
 Then
 Maybe then
 If we are still alive
 Then
 Maybe then
 This moment will survive
 Then
 Maybe then
 If we are still alive
 Maybe then
 This moment will survive
 (Beethoven turns to Fate and tells her, "I did not need this childhood. I did not need my mother to die when I was five. I did not need an alcoholic father or this sadistic teacher. I did not need such pain as a child. This! Remove all of this from my life.")
 (Fate tells him that it will all be as he wishes but before she grants his request he should be aware that when she removes the pains of his childhood he will also lose the inspiration that led to the Sixth Symphony. When faced with this choice, Beethoven realizes that he is not willing to lose the Sixth Symphony and withdraws his request.)
 (Fate then says, "Surely there were happy times, magical moments?")
 (Beethoven replies, "There were some.")
 ("Like the first time you arrived in Vienna?")
 ("Like the first time I arrived in Vienna.")
 (Within seconds they are there witnessing a rhapsodizing Beethoven as a young man seeing Vienna for the first time.)
