''Tonight it is the concert. Two Prodigies of Nature are coming to play in my lady''s ball-room. As soon as the concert begins I understand why the whole world comes to stare and listen.''

Scipio is eleven years old and a lady''s page. He plays the harpsichord, speaks French and German, and sings in Italian. But what was appealing and remarkable in a small child is no longer so in a ''hobbledehoy''. And after he meets the two child prodigies, Wolfi and Nannerl, at a concert, Scipio''s fate will change forever.
