About This Book

A young American violinist accepts a contract that sends her and her aunt on an extended concert tour through the United States and Canada, with a devoted friend accompanying them. The narrative follows preparations, performances in major venues, visits to historic and civic sites, and personal episodes — small domestic scenes, an alarming nighttime call, a lost locket, sightseeing in the national capital, and a serious accident that tests relationships and resolve. Music-making, descriptive travel scenes, and domestic detail combine to trace the protagonist's artistic development and the practical realities of touring.
