註釋

Composer Franz von Suppé's Requiem is lost in 1901.

Decades later, a dispassionate American named Harry is sent to Vienna to scatter his grandmother's ashes on von Suppé's grave. It's the least he can do, since she spent her whole life hoping in vain to hear the lost Requiem. But in the cemetery, Harry stumbles upon a pathway to the 1850s and finds himself in old Vienna on the day of the Requiem's premiere.

Determined to reach the premiere, he sets out with his grandmother's ashes on an adventurous journey through the bustling city, getting help from artists and public figures who are each dealing with a loss of their own, whether it's the loss of a loved one, an audience, or the body of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

For Harry, there's no better time and place to find one's heart and learn how to grieve.
