3.DuoM (formaly-M2O)
Mahciko Ozawa (violin and electric violin)
Makia Matsumura (piano, composition)
Graduates of The Juilliard School and the Henry Mancini Institute for jazz and film music, Machiko and Makia they enjoy very diverse backgrounds. For example, Machiko is also a fine tap dancer, while Makia has been developing skills as a tech-savvy engineer alongside her career as a composer. The combination of such eclectic talents is really a rare find.
Coincidentally, Machiko and Makia studied at the same institutes both in Tokyo and New York City, but didn't know each other until they started to perform together at a local cafe in late 1999. Since then, they have shared a passion for all types of music, and have been searching for a unique voice and style to call their own.
These two musicians effortlessly jump between genres and bridge the gap between analogue and digital sounds. Their repertoire covers a wide range of musical styles, including classical, jazz, tango, film music, world music, avant-garde, electro-acoustic... Their curiosity is unlimited.
