We are delighted to welcome this fine violinist, who was prevented by illness from appearing here two seasons ago. Born in South Korea and raised in the UK, Min-Jin Kym became at sixteen the youngest student to be awarded a Foundation Scholarship at the Royal College of Music, going on to study with Ruggiero Ricci in Salzburg. In 2005 she became the first recipient of the Heifetz Prize awarded by the Jascha Heifetz Society in Los Angeles. Ian Brown is one of this country’s finest pianists, admired in particular as the pianist of the Nash Ensemble.
The most talented violinist, both instrumentally and musically, that I have ever worked with. She seems to play with her whole being. Ruggiero Ricci
Brown’s playing is scrupulous and intelligent, and supremely confident. Washington Post
