內容介紹:
20世紀初,聖塞巴斯汀天主教會的附屬音樂學校里有一扇古老的窗子,被稱為奧爾菲斯之窗。相傳站在那扇窗前,將會和第一位映入眼帘的女性墜入一段宿命的悲戀。
女主角尤利烏斯作為德國三大家族的繼承人,從小就被其母親以私生子的身份養大成人。女扮男裝的她英姿勃發兼貌美絕倫,在聖塞巴斯汀音樂學校的奧爾菲斯之窗前與轉校生鋼琴系的伊扎克以及小提琴系的克拉烏斯宿命般地邂逅。
三個年輕人有著不同的身世背景:尤利烏斯生為貴族,家人因龐大的財產繼承權而勾心鬥角; 伊扎克家境貧寒,努力成為一流的鋼琴家; 克拉烏斯是一名俄國革命者,因其兄謀反被殺而逃亡德國。
在家族的恩怨與陰謀中,在音樂學校度過的快樂時光中,友情與愛情悄然滋生。 隨著一戰爆發,俄國大革命的開始,三個人為了各自的理想與信念,逐步走上各自不同的人生……
在這部架構浩大的愛情悲劇里,無法掙脫命運的枷鎖與個人對命運的反抗構成了故事的核心。情節哀婉動人,畫面恢弘華美,歐風濃郁,心理描寫出色,是比《凡爾賽玫瑰》更為成熟之作。
