 Music and Poetry Readings by Clare Three-Leggéd Stool Writers' Group Violinist Yuki Nishioka will accompany the Clare Three-Leggéd Stool writers' group in a reading as part of the third The Forge at Gort festival, organised by The Western Writers' Centre - Ionad Scríbhneoirí Chaitlín Maude - Galway in O'Grady's Restaurant and Bar, Gort, Co. Galway at 4.30pm, Saturday, March 27th. Admission is free. Yuki Nishioka has been playing classical violin since she was three and has competed at a national level in Japan; she was jointly awarded the Haydn prize for ensemble work with Mùm String Quartet.(1st violin) After graduating from Aichi Provincial University of Fine Arts and Music she became a member of Aichi Chamber Orchestra and played for a number of years as their lead violinist; she has also worked as an extra for a wide variety of musical groups and orchestras, from classical and opera to ballet and musical. In 2008 she encountered Traditional Irish Music in Galway. She is currently living in Ennis,learning the music which, she feels, changed her life. She feels that life is much more exciting learning from the rich musical tradition in Co. Clare. She teaches music at Coole Music in Gort. Last June she performed a recital at Holistic Meadow in Gort. The Western Writers' Centre thanks The Arts Council for their support. The Festival is still seeking sponsors. Details at 087.2178138.
