Yonekawa Toshiko II

二代米川敏子

Yonekawa Toshiko II
生まれ 1950


Yonekawa Toshiko is one of the most talented and consistent performers in the field of koto music, from classical to contemporary pieces. From an early age, Yonekawa received instruction in Ikuta-style koto music and jiuta sangen from her mother, Yonekawa Toshiko I, a living national treasure, and learned the basics of the classics in a privileged environment. Later, she studied composition under Akihiro Norimatsu, and actively participated in overseas performances to broaden her artistic horizons. In recent years, in addition to her own recitals, she has been active as a member of the group "New Wind" and the Japanese culture group "Kiza," and her activities beyond the boundaries of koto music are also attracting attention.

 Thus, in addition to her consistent performances of classical music, Yonekawa Toshiko II has been very active in the field of contemporary Japanese music, and has also been involved in a wide range of cross-cultural activities.

She received the name Toshiko II in 2007 after her mother passed away.
