I recommend the Jack Benny movie The Horn Blows at Midnight. It's a 1940s comedy that answers the philosophical questions posed here. (Jack plays Gabriel's trumpet instead of his usual violin.) The opening shots of the endless celestial orchestra playing a super-symphony are quite fun. The film is full of clever dialog and delightful situations.
