A commercial promoting radio receivers produced by the Telefunken company.
Synopsis
An orchestra comes together in a forest clearing. A faun approaches the conductor's stand, gives a signal with his baton and the orchestra begins to play. The music, however, is not good, and the tones from the individual instruments are of poor quality. The instruments begin to tune up. The trumpets rinse their throats, bees fly out from the bass, mice jump out of the clarinets, a caterpillar crawls out of the harmonica, a frog jumps out of the saxophone. The violin and the drum do not fall behind, either. As soon as all the instruments are well tuned and ready, the faun - the conductor - comes over again. The orchestra now plays very cleanly and beautifully - just like the Telefunken radio receivers (Triokoncert, Galakoncert and Grandkoncert).
