Ogawa Kyoko

Kyoko Ogawa is a New York based soprano. She studied at Osaka College of Music and graduated from Manhattan School of Music.

She appeared in The Mariage of Figaro as Susanna, Die Fledermaus as Adele, The Magic Flute as The Queen of the Night and The Telephone As Lucy with the New York Lyric Opera Theatre.

She received glowing reviews for her appearance as Lady Thiang in the Arizona Broadway Theatre’s production of The King and I in 2015. Richard Schult from Echo Magazine described her voice as "mesmerizing” and her performance as “stunning. Her rendition of Something Wonderful is a show stopper”. David Appleford from Valley Screen and Stage wrote “…her performance of Something Wonderful brought the house down”. Other theatre roles include Cinderella in Cinderella and Belle in A Christmas Carrol with the Once Upon a Time Theatre Company.

In addition to her stage work she has recorded and released her solo album “The Moon Sings to the Sea” with a line up of some of New York’s most established jazz musicians in 2012, featuring Songs from the American Songbook. The CD release tour in Japan included performances in concert halls such as Ginza Yamaha Hall in Tokyo and The Phoenix Hall Osaka.

  Tokyo University of the Arts (東京藝術大学 , Tōkyō Geijutsu Daigaku) or Geidai (芸大 ) is an art school in Japan. Located in Ueno Park, it also has facilities in Toride, Ibaraki, Yokohama, Kanagawa, and Kitasenju, Adachi, Tokyo. The university owns two halls of residence: one (for both Japanese and international students) in Adachi, Tokyo, and the other (for mainly international students) in Matsudo, Chiba.

  The university was formed in 1949 by the merger of the Tokyo Fine Arts School (東京美術学校 , Tōkyō Bijutsu Gakkō) and the Tokyo Music School (東京音楽学校 , Tōkyō Ongaku Gakkō) , both founded in 1887. Originally male-only, the schools began to admit women in 1946. The graduate school opened in 1963, and began offering doctoral degrees in 1977. After the National University Corporations were formed on April 1, 2004, the school became known as the Kokuritsu Daigaku Hōjin Tōkyō Geijutsu Daigaku ((国立大学法人東京藝術大学 ) . On April 1, 2008, the university changed its English name from "Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music" to "Tokyo University of the Arts."

  The school has had student exchanges with a number of other art and music institutions such as the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (USA), the Royal Academy of Music (UK), the University of Sydney and Queensland College of Art, Griffith University (Australia), the Korea National University of Arts, and the China Central Academy of Fine Arts.
