Working with musicians
Jun 18th, 2007 by kyoko
I have worked with some musicians so far and will be working with them in the future. Here I want to talk about my musical background.
Starting from Kyoko as a kid
around 8 years old : start learning piano
around 12 : stop learning piano
around 14 : start learning violin from a mom of my friend. Hobby level lessons.
around 17 : Get an electoric guiter from my mom’s friend. Red and yellow Gibson Les Paul copy! Strat a girl’s punk band copying mainly Sex Pistols.
in the Kyoko city university of art 19~24 : started many different bands. Often with Tomoko Hirose and also with Hikari Kuramoto and Megumi Hosoya–>she remains as a professional musician. I sensed that I would never be able to play the guiter well, so I swiched to the bass guiter.
——-I left my musical instruments in my home town and came to Amsterdam
2005 : working withh IKKI as their VJ, performed at Winston and zaal 100, Amsterdam
2006 : working with a recorder trio Black Intension as their VJ, performed at some venues in Utrecht and Van Gogh Museum
