Miyabi Guitar Duo

Hugh Millington and Saki Kato perform together as the Miyabi Duo, performing a variety of music for two guitars, ranging from new compositions to their own arrangements using both the classical guitar and the Shamisen, a traditional Japanese string instrument.  The duo is particularly committed to performing and working in all areas of the wider community, and since performing for the Wigmore Hall Learning’s ‘For Crying Out Loud’ series, they have performed in environments including hospitals, care homes, and dementia care settings. The duo is currently a fellowship ensemble on the Open Academy/ Wigmore Hall Learning programme at the Wigmore Hall in London, and in 2020 the duo was recognised through the Waldmann Music Award at Sidney Sussex College Cambridge, in acknowledgement of their work both within the concert hall and the wider community.
