Abigail Rosen, nicknamed Appassionata, was the sexiest, most
flamboyant violinist in classical music, but she was also the
loneliest and the most exploited girl in the world. When a dramatic
suicide attempt destroyed her violin career, she set her sights on
the male-dominated heights of the conductor's rostrum. Given the
chance to take over the Rutminster Symphony Orchestra, Abby is
ecstatic, not realising the RSO is in hock up to its neck and is
composed of the wildest bunch of musicians ever to blow a horn or
caress a fiddle. Abby finds it increasingly difficult to control
her undisciplined rabble and pretend she is not madly attracted to
the fatally glamorous horn player, Viking O'Neill, who claims droit
de seigneur over every pretty woman joining the orchestra. And then
Rannaldini, arch-fiend and international maestro, rolls up with
Machiavellian plans of his own to sabotage the RSO. Effervescent as
champagne, Jilly Cooper's novel brings back old favourites like
Rupert and Taggie Campbell-Black, but also ends triumphantly with a
rampageous orchestral tour of Spain and the high drama of an
international piano competition.
