Generate a realistic black-and-white photograph in the style of **Claire Denis’ early 1980s films**, with the visual qualities of being shot on **Kodak Tri-X 400 film** using a **vintage Zeiss 50mm f/1.4 lens**.The setting is a **concert hall during rehearsal**, viewed from a distance. The image should show the **composer walking or observing discreetly among the musicians**, surrounded by music stands, instruments, and chairs. The **overall composition is wide**, offering deep context: the messy, lived-in texture of a working orchestra.The **composer’s face is the only sharp point**, rendered with high contrast and tonal depth — catching the eye.

The rest of the image (musicians, background, instruments) should be **blurred softly**, with **a shallow depth of field and natural lens falloff**.Clothing: **all black**, minimalist, functional — inspired by **Toogood**, **Seya**, **De Bonne Facture**.
