Composer Franz Schubert—broke, struggling and unhappy—gets a break when a wealthy friend wangles him an invitation to a command performance in front of a princess of the royal family. Schubert performs a version of his new work, “Symphony in B Minor”, for the princess, but a misunderstanding results in Schubert storming out of the concert in a rage. Complications ensue. English-language version of “Leise flehen meine Lieder.”
