Summary

I started playing the piano at the age of three. I played classical piano before entering art high school, and began to major in jazz piano in earnest at the age of 15. The technique is excellent by playing the classical piano for a long time. In art high school, I gained various experiences by playing with not only musicians but also dancers and actors. Especially, I remember doing a musical ensemble with the students of the theater and film department. Since I was 16 years old, I have gained a lot of experience in performances inside and outside the school and busking. After I became an adult, I also experienced being a piano instructor. There are also many experiences in teaching students at the level of beginners. Especially, I'm confident in transcription, and I have an absolute pitch, so I can do it quickly and accurately.
