Desc: The Music Master: Directed by Allan Dwan. With Alec B. Francis, Lois Moran, Neil Hamilton, Norman Trevor. Anton von Barwig, formerly an orchestra leader in Vienna, searches for his daughter who was taken from him by his wife many years before. Out of pride, he refuses help and is gradually forced to sell all his belongings. After being fleeced for years by a detective, he meets Helene Stanton, who is his long-lost daughter. She comes into his life as a charming young society girl seeking music lessons for her fiancé, Beverly Cruger, a boy of promising musical talents; sensing his kinship with her, Barwig finally confronts her foster father, who had run away with his wife in Vienna. Though her father is persuaded to make the sacrifice of effacing himself so as not to ruin her chance for social success, she discovers the relationship and brushes social considerations aside to be reunited with him.
