In the spring of 1828, at the age of 46, Nicolo Paganini leaves his native Italy for his first tour of Europe. His first stop is Vienna, the music capital of the world. While there he crosses paths with a largely unkown Franz Schubert, then in the last year of his young life. The two great composers, although differing greatly in temperament and personality, inspire each other to confront life's persistent challenges. By the time Paganini leaves Vienna near the end of the year to continue his European tour, Schubert has already proceeded on his own Winter Journey, but not without giving Paganini something he will cherish for the rest of his life.
