And finally, photos from our post-concert reception in the @cu_cdcc ✨

Friends and family of Kun gathered to celebrate the company and raise a toast to 50 years of success led by Marina Kun. We were delighted to be joined by the performers and also the whole team at @chamberfest

Our historic timeline was proudly on display and we presented each of the violinists performing in the concert with a commemorative Kun tuner created especially for our milestone anniversary by the wonderful @luxitune.

It was a night to remember and we’d like to thank everyone who came to raise a glass to Kun. Here’s to another 50 years!

Kun & Luxitune meet up in NYC! 🥰

Our marketing officer Aran went on a little vacation to the Big Apple last weekend after our 50th anniversary concert, so he got the opportunity to meet up with the amazing HyeJun of @luxitune for the first time in person. Of course they thought it would be fun to have a tuner giveaway to celebrate the occasion.

In order to win, you just have to guess which street intersection this photo was taken. No clues! 😉

DM your answer for the chance to win a commemorative Kun fine tuner for your violin or viola! ✨🎻

Update: winner announced on Monday! 😍
