I perform extensively across Japan in a wide range of settings, unconstrained by genre or style, including solo recitals, chamber music, orchestral performances, artist support, live shows, corporate events, and private parties.

In recent years, I have also been actively involved in meaningful projects such as the Life Resonance Concert with the Kyoto Quartet, presented in collaboration with Inochi no Denwa, sharing the preciousness of life through music.
