Produktbeschreibung

Arc' tells the story of overcoming immense trauma amidst the world's most historical monstrosities. The author, a Japanese woman born during WWII who survived the A-bomb in Hiroshima, immigrated to the USA and spent her adult life as a professional violinist. She married a German physicist/engineer who grew up in WWII Germany, losing his brother and father to the hardships of war. Despite their tough beginnings in countries that are 5,500 miles apart, they managed to build successful careers, raise two children together, and enjoy rich and happy lives. This stretch of time the author calls 'the Arc' expanded high above their trauma to create a beautiful and expansive circle over their lives. Yuko Ninomiya Heberlein was born in Japan during World War II and graduated from the Tokyo University of Arts as a violin major. She came to the USA in 1966 and received her MFA in Music from the University of Minnesota. In 1969, she joined the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra as its First Violinist. Yuko went on to teach violin at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, earn a second master's degree in Japanese Linguistics, teach Japanese at University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, and release a CD 'Music for the Young Paganini.' She and her husband, an internationally recognized German scientist in thermal plasma, were married for 44 years before he passed away from ALS.
