After a year of playing in the Washington Symphony Orchestra, Sylvia Kreen finally has a chance to take the spotlight. She's up for a solo concerto position. Her only competition is Alice, the winsome non-Jewish beauty that's caught the eye of everyone, including, Allen, the conductor. As secure as Sylvia might be in her talent, she's convinced she might lose everything she's worked for professionally because of what she's lacking in the looks department. After all, Sylvia's played the beauty versus brains game before, losing friends and self-esteem in the process. The structured world of classical music begins to mirror the maddening high school experiences that Sylvia was so glad to leave behind. Allen is making his decision in a few short days. Will Sylvia be able to overcome her past? Or will she let what happened in high school cast a shadow over her future? |
