The symphonic suite "1805 – A Town's Tale" by Otto M. Schwarz is based on the original score for the short film of the same name, produced by Refos Film in 2013. The film tells of a fateful autumn day in 1805, when the French soldier Phillipe leaves his camp to warn his lover Mina and the town of Krems of an impending attack.

The music opens with atmospheric soundscapes: fog lies over the fields near Dürnstein, fireplaces glow in the dawn gloom, the camp rests in silence. The suite unfolds with great emotionality and cinematic density – from tender, intimate moments to dramatically charged passages that grippingly depict the plot.

The Symphonic Suite combines the main themes of the soundtrack and is ideal for concert performances with a fanfare orchestra.
