- Sex, drugs and classical music illustrate what happens behind the curtains at the symphony can be just as captivating as what occurs on stage.
- Young director Rodrigo De Souza is appointed chief of the New York Symphony Orchestra, which he wants to modernize, as ancient former maestro Thomas is retired by the board. The musicians speculate about the future, while indulging in a wild night-life, also with sexy Juliards dancers. Young Oboeist Hailey, getting by as tutor, is late due to traffic for Rodrigo's blind audition, but plays anyway and seduces him, as he was still around, bumping an assistant.—KGF Vissers
- Rodrigo De Souza, the wunderkind of the orchestral world who is largely known solely by his given name by symphony aficionados, has his first gig with the New York Symphony Orchestra, he sharing the program with the out-going conductor, now conductor emeritus Thomas Pembridge. Despite Rodrigo's fame and pedigree as a so-called genius, Thomas, who was on the selection committee for his replacement, quickly begins to regret the decision, as traditional Thomas doesn't agree with many of the changes Rodrigo wants to make to modernize the artistic side of the organization. Rodrigo, having no history with the group, also has no personal connection to any of his musicians, and thus has no qualms about letting long time members go if they are no longer pulling their weight. Meanwhile, Cynthia Taylor, a cellist with the orchestra, meets at her second gig of the night (the pit orchestra of a Broadway musical) oboist Hailey Rutledge, relatively new to the city from North Carolina. A talented musician, Hailey is trying to eke out a life around her music, which includes needing to teach, her students who may have other things besides the oboe on their mind. Out-going and up front Cynthia, taking Hailey out for drinks after the show, ends up not so much being Hailey's wing man, but rather the person who acts on Hailey's behalf for what Hailey really wants, most specifically with a waiter cum ballet dancer named Alex Merriweather. Later at home, Hailey gets sucked into staying at the party at the apartment hosted by Hailey's roommate, Lizzie Campbell. Despite making a connection that evening, Hailey may regret what will be her hangover the next morning as it may affect what could be her big break.—Huggo
