The book was first published in 1902 and tells the story of a young violinist named Rafael Joseffy who is struggling to find his place in the world of music. Joseffy is a talented musician who is constantly seeking to improve his skills, but he is also haunted by the memory of his father, who died when he was young. One day, while practicing in his studio, he is visited by a mysterious old man who gives him a fifth string for his violin. This string has magical powers that allow Joseffy to play music that is beyond his wildest dreams. As Joseffy begins to explore the possibilities of the fifth string, he is drawn into a world of music and magic that he never knew existed. He meets other musicians who have also been given magical strings, and together they form a unique and powerful ensemble.

His marvelous success as violinist in the leading capitals of Europe, together with many brilliant contributions to the literature of his instrument, had long been favorably commented on by the critics of the old world. Many stories of his struggles and his triumphs had found their way across the ocean and had been read and re-read with interest. Therefore, when Mr. Henry Perkins, the well-known impresario, announced with an air of conscious pride and pardonable enthusiasm that he had secured Diotti for a ``limited'' number of concerts, Perkins' friends assured that wide-awake gentleman that his foresight amounted to positive genius, and they predicted an unparalleled success for his star. On account of his wonderful ability as player, Diotti was a favorite at half the courts of Europe, and the astute Perkins enlarged upon this fact without regard for the feelings of the courts or the violinist.
