Catherine Urner was the favorite American pupil of the French composer Charles Koechlin. Their correspondence which spanned over two decades is the basis for this biography of Urner--a story of love, courage and devotion. These letters also shed light on the music scene in Paris and California in the 1920s and 1930s, moreover they provide a unique perspective on the artistic struggle of a woman composer in America at that time.
