At least one woman really, really enjoyed the Los Angeles Philharmonic orchestra Friday evening.
British composer Magnus Fiennes – brother of actor Ralph Fiennes – tweeted that he allegedly heard a woman audibly orgasm during the show.
“Went to see @LAPhil play @Thomasades and Tchaikovsky 5 last night. A woman in the audience had loud and full body orgasm during the 5th’s second movement… Band politely carried on. Props to LAPhil (and Pytor Ilyich) for bringing it on….” Magnus, 57, tweeted.
However, one man did dispute the climatic claim.
“I was there,” he tweeted. “This is not what happened. The poor woman had a breakdown of some sort…. we were all worried it was a medical emergency. Please have more respect.”
Despite the rebuttal, Magnus still stood his ground.
“I ran all possible scenarios, Tourettes even. Was in close proximity and had no less than 8 other friends coincidentally attending- all had reached a similar conclusion,” he replied. “She remained for the rest of the show, Her demeanour was in evidence. My corroborated take is merely an observation. Respect maintained.”

Another person who commented on the tweet suggested an alternative explanation for the theatrical moan.
“Did you run the scenario where she was asleep and suddenly woke up from a nightmare?” a commenter asked. “That happened in 2017 to another woman.”

Magnus responded, “I did not. Plausible.”
Magnus was not the only concertgoer to describe the woman’s frenzied response to Tchaikovsky.
Several others described the scene that took place on the balcony at the packed Walt Disney Concert Hall.
“Everyone kind of turned to see what was happening,” Molly Grant, who was sitting near the overjoyed woman, told the Los Angeles Times on Sunday.
“I saw the girl after it had happened, and I assume that she … had an orgasm because she was heavily breathing,” she said. “And her partner was smiling and looking at her — like in an effort to not shame her. It was quite beautiful.”
Meanwhile, music agent Lukas Burton told the LA Times that the woman’s loud moan was “wonderfully timed” to a “romantic swell” during the performance.
“One can’t know exactly what happened, but it seemed very clear from the sound that it was an expression of pure physical joy,” Burton told the paper.
Classical pianist Sharon Su added in a tweet that she “checked with someone” who works at the LA Phil.
They allegedly “confirmed” that the incident was real and that the orchestra did not stop playing during Tchaikovsky’s 5th.
An audio clip purporting to capture the woman’s moment of sheer ecstasy has – not surprisingly – gone viral.
