Kako Miura Boga will perform in concert with The University of Scranton String Orchestra. Originally from Tokyo, Japan and now based in New York, NY, Kako Miura Boga is a violinist who performs on both historical and modern instruments. Kako has appeared internationally as a soloist, performing alongside orchestras in

Asia, Australia, and the United States, and her solo and chamber music performances have taken her to such distinguished venues as Alice Tully Hall of Lincoln Center, Weill and Zankel Halls at Carnegie Hall, and the Sydney Opera House. Also sought after as an orchestral musician, Kako most recently led Juilliard415, The Juilliard School's period orchestra, as concertmaster on a recent tour of Germany in collaboration with Yale Schola Cantorum. She is the recipient of numerous awards, including a National YoungArts Foundation Award, The English Concert in America Fellowship, and The Mercury-Juilliard Fellowship. Her principal teachers have included Cynthia Roberts, Elizabeth Blumenstock, Robert Lipsett, and Masao Kawasaki. The University of Scranton String Orchestra is a 30+ member ensemble comprised of members of the university community from majors and departments spanning the curriculum - most of them undergraduate students, joined by a few graduate students, alumni, and members of the faculty - none of whom are music majors, who are all brought together by their mutual love of music-making.
