Description
Henry Handel Richardson set Maurice Guest among music students in Leipzig. Part one opens at noon outside the new Gewandhaus hall. A crowd pours out from a public rehearsal into the sun.
Young Maurice Guest stands back and watches a scene new to him. Players thread through the crowd with violin cases in hand. Some fans wait at the back door for a famed Belgian violinist. Talk, heat, and keen youth fill the square as the tale begins. Talk in many tongues shows how wide the music world had grown. Guest must earn his place in that bright, stern crowd.
