Beautiful Music

Scott Wainwright, professor at a prestigious conservatory of music, thinks of himself as a concert pianist and teacher. He's upset when his department chair insists he be the accompanist to Joel Michaels, a violinist and fellow professor, in an upcoming recital. As he says, he didn't train to play "second fiddle" to some fiddler.

However, upon meeting Joel, Scott’s crusty exterior begins to crack. Despite a few artistic differences, practices for the upcoming performance go well. Can the beautiful music they perform on stage lead to a deeper connection off of it?
