A most unpopular guest conductor, Maestro Bigherr, has been murdered. Everyone in the hall is a suspect and before the night is over, the murderer will strike again. The cast includes a fastidious detective, a mysterious “lady in red,” a bumbling police sergeant, a guilty looking orchestra and a very nervous conductor. This concert is a splendid evening of classic film music and a delightfully different who-done-it murder.
