  • EFI Spiegeltent 1 Lauriston Place Edinburgh, Scotland, EH3 9EN United Kingdom (map)

Throughout history, women have been excluded from learning and performing the piano. Even the modern instrument’s keys are still designed to fit men’s hands. In Women and the Piano, concert pianist and author Susan Tomes tells a new history of the instrument by celebrating the lives of fifty different women who played piano. Join Tomes in conversation with Kate Molleson as they discuss these remarkable pianists.

This event is part of Edinburgh International Book Festival.
