Nobuko Miyazaki
Flutist / Shinobue player

Nobu's world is always expanding. Her passion "to enjoy music with every person in the world", combined with a strong foundation and flexibility, enables her to converse musically with great artists from Asia to Europe to the Middle East.

Based in New York City, Nobu is an active flute and shinobue (Japanese bamboo flute) performer and teacher. She is a member of the Medina Tenour Trio (bossa nova /singer-songwriter) and plays with various other groups. She is currently working on a recording project of her original works.

She has performed in Europe, Japan, and the US, including concerts with the Arabic ‘oud master Ahmed Mukhtar and the UK’s premier Japanese drumming group Taiko Meantime.

Nobu is also an active educator. She promotes traditional Asian music in schools and creative learning for kids.

Nobu studied flute performance with Thomas Robertello and Kate Lukas at Indiana University, Bloomington (USA) and ethnomusicology at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS, University of London, UK).
