Song of the Bellbirds is a bittersweet tale of love and heartache, set against the vast wheatfields
of Queensland and the glittering opera houses of Europe and America.
All
young Lizzie Foster wants to do is sing, ride the boundaries of her
family’s Queensland property and dream of one day performing on stage.
But when a freak storm hits the area, wreaking havoc and bringing tragedy,
she swears never to sing another note.
Lizzy,
however, has a voice as uplifting as the pure beauty of the song of the
bellbirds, and others are not quite so willing to let her remarkable
talent go to waste. There is the loving but ambitious Sister Angelica, a
natural teacher; the vibrant and dangerously attractive Maestro Leonard
Rominski, whose charms Lizzy finds irresistible; and the irrepressible
Gran whose love sustains Lizzy through thrilling highs and crushing lows.
But it
is Lizzy alone who will ultimately decide if the price she must pay to
sing is too high.
