The triumphs and vicissitudes of a family held together by a fanatical love of music yet torn apart by money, madness, conflicts of loyalty and the upheaval of two world wars. The Wittgenstein family was one of the richest in Europe, and in the 20th century produced Paul, the world-famous pianist, and Ludwig, the philosopher.
