Presented in association with CÚIRT International Festival of Literature in the TOWN HALL THEATRE

Min Kym, violinist and author, in conversation with Toner Quinn

Korean-born, London-raised violinist Min Kym talks about growing up as a child prodigy, gives insights into the world of a budding soloist and the special relationship a violinist develops with their instrument, in this case a priceless Stradivarius that was dramatically stolen from her in central London. She will read from her bestselling memoir Gone: A Girl, a Violin, a Life Unstrung and perform some of the works mentioned in the book.

Toner Quinn is editor of The Journal of Music and Lecturer in Publishing at NUI Galway.
