“My name is Asuka Uchida. I am a classical, crossover, and contemporary singer. I have sung many lyrical colatura operatic roles at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and Royal Liverpool Philharmonic as well as international festivals.
I remember all technical aspects and their professionalism from all the teachers that I have studied.
Adjusting to each student’s specific needs and pointing out what they need to work on for immediate and long term goals is my philosophy of teaching.
One of my biggest achievements is paralleling opera and contemporary singing. Some people think it’s not possible but it’s workable and much more fun to do both.
I have so many favourties… Leontyne Price, Alfa Mist, Emmavie, Amber Mark, Earth Gang, Dame Kiri te Kanawa , Kurt Elling, Roy Hargrove, August Green, Moon Child, Lion Babe, Ja Rule and Tyler the creator and many more!
I have always wanted to create jobs in underdeveloped countries so that they can be self sufficient. Unfortunately I still don’t have a solid idea. If I can be a part of it, it would be ideal. Please let me know if you have any ideas!
I would bring the Epoch by Alfa Mist, Kind of Blue by Miles Davis, Tristan and Isolde by Richard Wagner to a desert island.”
