Bing hits the high notes! Joan hits the love notes! You'll hit a happy note... in this king-sized muscial wonder!

At the turn of the 20th century, travelling salesman Virgil Smith journeys to Vienna in the hope he can sell a gramophone to Emperor Franz Joseph, whose purchase of the recent American invention could spur its popularity in Austria.
