Echo tells four different, enchanting stories from different times and places. It is a tale about sacrifice, family, friendship, and the unifying power of music. It is divided into four different parts: Otto's story in the late 1800s in Germany; Friedrich's story in 1933 in Germany; Mike's story in 1935 in Pennsylvania; and Ivy's story in 1942 in Southern California.
