A beautiful story of a poor young musician who has composed an exquisite symphony. Adjoining his squalid quarters is a room occupied by a young lady of good family, but impoverished. She can hear the wonderful strains of the symphony played by the young musician and becomes first interested in the music and then in love with the composer. Together they plan to apprise the world of the genius. One evening, as a renowned musician is leaving a concert hall, after one of his great successes, the young composer throws the score of the symphony into the carriage of the great musician.
