In an interview with Zack Wheat of 4Player Network, Shota Nakama speaks about his work as founder of the acclaimed Japanese Video Orchestra, and what he gained from studying classical guitar:
SN: I was in Oregon in 2005, and I had an opportunity to study with Peter Zisa, who is one of the very best classical guitar teachers I have ever met. He is pretty much the reason why I got hooked with this whole classical guitar thing. I did continue taking classical guitar lessons from Apostolos Parazkevas in Berklee. After Berklee I went to The Boston Concervatory where I received a master’s degree in Classical Guitar Performance in 2012.
