A shocking scoop! The "nobleman of the classical music world," a well-known figure in variety shows, is suspected of "adultery!
On a drizzly early May evening, a man dressed all in black emerges from an apartment in a prime Tokyo location. Holding an umbrella in his right hand, he escorts a woman beside him out of the rain. They got into a cab that was waiting for them near the entrance and headed for a new landmark in Tokyo, a five-minute drive away – a new landmark in Tokyo.
On that day, enjoying a date with a beautiful, stylish woman was pianist Nobuya Kiyotsuka (41).
Kiyotsuka, who has been trained as a gifted pianist since the age of five, won first prize at the “First International Chopin Piano Competition in Asia” in 2000. He studied at the Moscow Conservatory, one of the world’s three major music conservatories, and has since won numerous awards in domestic and international competitions.’ In ’19, he became the first Japanese male pianist to perform at the Nippon Budokan. In addition to music, he made his acting debut in the movie “Sayonara Debussy” in ’13, and has been active in a variety of other roles, such as in “Sake no Tsumami ni naru Hanashi” and “Wide Na Show” (both on Fuji Television), where he enlivens the programs with his comedian-like talk. Combined with her sweet mask, she is also called the “noblewoman of the classical music world.
In his private life, he married actress Eri Otoguro (41) in 2012. They have two daughters.
