In this music makers’ romance “all the persons concerned are members of the great Herr Wolfgang’s symphony orchestra.... Franz, who is introduced as a boy violinist, sick with desire to be a real boy instead of a musical prodigy, grows up to be a very noble and serious sort of a genius. The other boy, who had the passion for the flute, also grows up, to play Jonathan to Franz’s David. And there is a girl. The girl plays the harp and writes poems, and she is very lovely and very good.... The other leading characters are a first violin, who is a villain, and the conductor, the famous Herr Wolfgang. The remainder of the orchestra is cast for comic parts.”—N. Y. Times.
