Biography
I am a part time PhD student and an experienced music teacher. I am primarily a classical singer and violinist, but I am also studying the shamisen and tonkori. I have an interest in many aspects of Japanese music, and I play the shamisen and sing in the SOAS Min'yo group. My spare time is taken up by folk metal and Historical European Martial Arts.
