In real life, Schindler was not a close friend of Beethoven, though he was Beethoven's secretary for a while. It has been claimed that Schindler destroyed 260 of Beethoven's approximately 400 conversation notebooks, although this belief has been challenged in recent years, and forged entries into the surviving ones. Beethoven's actual eulogy was written by poet Franz Grillparzer and given by actor Heinrich Anschütz.
