  Title: Carl Eberwein
  Passage: Franz Carl Adalbert Eberwein (10 November 1786 - 2 March 1868) was a German composer and violinist.  He was born in Weimar, Germany and learned music under the consultation of his father.  He was good friends with Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and put music to many of his works, such as "Faust" and to "Proserpina".  There is also at least one flute concerto, a "quatuor brillant" (string quartet with leading violin; opus 4, after 1805?)  in A major, song cycles and cantatas (some but not all to words by Goethe; also a Trauercantate to words by Friedrich Wilhelm Riemer, Eberwein's opus 21 published in 1830.)
  Title: Faust Overture
  Passage: The Faust Overture is a concert overture composed by German composer Richard Wagner.  Wagner originally composed it between 1839 and 1840, intending it to be the first movement of a "Faust Symphony" based on the play "Faust" by German playwright Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.  Realizing that he would not finish the planned symphony, Wagner revised the piece between 1843 and 1844, incorporating ideas from the other planned movements, and creating instead a single-movement concert overture.  He made a final revision in 1855.  The work is one of Wagner's few compositions intended for the concert hall, rather than the theatre.
  Title: Faust, Part One

Porter, three years before he directed The Great Train Robbery.

It is a replica of an iron and copper bust created by Kischer around 1832, the year of Goethe's death.  Acquired by the Goethe Society of American in 1987, it was displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art until it was relocated to Bryant Park in 1932.  Following its installation there, the iron and copper bust was replaced with a bronze casting and dedicated on February 15, 1932.  The sculpture was refurbished in 1992 by the Bryant Park Restoration Corporation.  The sculpture sits on a Swedish black granite pedestal.
