Michiru was born in Hyogo, Japan in 1980. She started playing the piano at an early age by first echoing natural sounds and chirping birds.
Later in her life, she enrolled at Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music in 2000 where she majored in musical composition.She initially studied the fundamentals of classical music; but her interest was not exclusively encompassed to this genre. Michiru later began to look into various other genres of music,like pop-music, electronic-music,folk-music, Jazz,rock,and contemporary music.These were endlessly interesting to her as she progressively began to change and improve hercapability of expression.
She graduated at the top of her class, and her first orchestral work Music for orchestra was performed in 2004.She proceeded to continue her studies by entering the Graduate School of the University. In 2005,one of her works Six Turkish Folk Music was performed by Ensemble NOMAD,a foremost authority of contemporary music in Japan.
In 2006,she received her master's degree in composition and later went on to organize her first concert From Ear To Ear vol.1. The event was held in a unique way in that she created surround-sound space by using many speakers and darkened the hall to enhance the surround-sound effect. She produced the concert and performed her own works.
From 2007, she has been working as a composer and her activities have grown to encompass every category of music.
Several examples of her work include:
*Musical pieces for Chubu Centrair International Airport (2007)
*The theme music for a documentary TV program The dreams of Second Life(Act On TV) (2007)
*Songs for TV animation CLAYMORE (NTV) released from VAP (2007)
*A song Shine for kanon released from Sony Music Japan International Inc (2006)
She is now currently working on her solo debut album to be released in 2009.
In the first album,she makes mainly vocal pieces inspired from various female voices, which will notably display her originality.
