Maedchen in Weiss (1936)
Girls in White is the English-language title of this German semi-musical. The title characters are students in an exclusive St. Petersburg girl's academy. The principal character is Daniella, the daughter of a now-deceased opera diva. Since Daniella is played by famed soprano Maria Cebotari, be assured that the character has inherited her mother's musical talents. Alas, Daniella's aristocratic fiance (Ivan Petrovich) refuses to allow her to pursue an operatic career, leading to a harmless but compromising situation involving opera fan Grand Duke Sergei (Georg Alexander). There's more to the story than this, but people went to see Maedchen in Weiss to see the girls, not concentrate on the plot convolutions. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
