I cannot even guess what a "music therapist" would do. Do you help the
less popular symphonies deal with their feelings of inferiority?
Beethoven I: Dit-dit-dit-DAH; I get so tired of it. All anyone
ever wants to hear is the 5th.
Music therapist: Now, we've talked about this before. You are
every bit as good as your flashier sibling.
Beethoven I: Oh, come on. We all know he was young and
inexperienced when I was born. Being the eldest carries so much
responsibility.
Music therapist: You're both made up of the same 12 notes. V is
made up of the same stuff. Oh, look, our time is up. I think we made
good progress today.
