They called her Appassionata, though her real name was Abigail Rosen. She was the sexiest, most flamboyant violinist on the music scene, adored by her fans and lusted after by men. She was also lonely and exploited. When a dramatic suicide attempt destroys her violin career, she sets out to conquer the conductors rostrum. Abigail is given the chance to take over the Rutminster Symphony Orchestra. Abby is ecstatic, not knowing that the RSO is up to its ears in debt, and is composed of the randiest group of musicians ever to bow a violin. Doing her best to pull this rabble into something resembling a real orchestra is going to take all she's got, as is resisting the encroachments of Viking, the fatally glamorous French horn player. Sexy Cooper silliness at its most delightfully entertaining.
