Summary
Domineering maestro Leopold exerts a Svengali-like control over Myra, a talented young pianist. Frustrated by Leopold's domineering nature, the girl abandons her professional career and marries a humble farmer. 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.Additional Information
