Synopsis: In this a stirring romance set in the world of classical music, a domineering maestro Leopold (Philip Dorn) exerts a Svengali-like control over Myra, a talented young pianist (Catherine McLeod). Frustrated by Leopold's domineering nature, the girl abandons her professional career and marries a humble farmer (William Carter). Years later, haunted by regret, Myra returns to face her former mentor, to prove that she was, and continues to be, a better musician than he ever credited her with being. Legendary pianist Artur Rubinstein performed the pieces heard in the film (by Beethoven, Chopin, Mozart, Wagner, and others), and provides a particularly memorable rendition of Rachmaninoff's sublime Second Piano Concerto. STREET DATE: AUGUST 26TH.
