Akiyo LambertKai

​

ALived between Tokyo and Paris for nearly 30 years and taught music for 40 years. People who are attracted to her lyre's tones on YouTube and on stage come not only from Japan but also from Asia and North Africa. Akiyo has served as a teacher at the World Lyre Conference and has taught at Lyre Workshops in France, Germany, the United States, and other countries. Based on the lyre technique of lyre creator Holland Gärtner and the harp technique of Elena Polonska, Akiyo discovers, educates, and systemizes the her original lyre method as a performance instrument on the stage that is different from existing ones. She also studied early music in Spain and France, which he utilizes in his performances of Bach and other works. In 2005, Akiyo began teaching lyre at the Paris Atelier. In 2011, she opened an atelier in Tokyo with an NPO, and currently trains beginners to professional musicians and teachers, while considering the meaning of musical instruments as education and music therapy based on the Akiyo Lyre Method.

​

After singing the Tokyo Nikikai Opera Studio, she appeared on many stages as a soprano singer and appeared on TV and commercials, but in 1998, she began to develop early symptoms of collagen disease and was forced to take a break. She discovered Yuko Aoki's lyre and began playing it in France. In 2004, she became a member of the Munich Lyre Orchestra, led by Susanne Heinz, as a part-leader, and also appeared in many duo concerts with Susanne. Solos have been performed at ceremonies at the Grand Hall of the National Library of France, Palazzo Sforza in Milan, and Père Lachaise in Paris. She has concerts from 2023, performing at the Matsumoto Memorial Music Guest House "Fairy Forest Cat."
