Joshua Nakazawa, a graduate of Manhattan School of Music and Southern Methodist University, is excited to be joining the Hawaii Symphony Orchestra this year. In 2016 he will also be performing as an artist apprentice with the National Arts Centre Orchestra in Ottawa and as a guest musician with the Charleston Symphony in South Carolina. In recent years Joshua has performed with the New World Symphony, Performance Santa Fe, New Haven Symphony and New Bedford Symphony. Having a great appreciation for summer music festivals, viewing them as a mecca for building colleague relationships, performing new repertoire and enjoying different cultures, Joshua has enjoyed participating in the Spoleto Music Festival, Pacific Music Festival, and the Banff music festival.
