Performance highlights include singing at a gathering for distinguished religious leaders and United Nations Representatives, currently being a soloist for Escafeld Choral, monthly university performances, and singing for friends and family members' wedding ceremonies and receptions.

Elise and Yuko gave a fantastic lunchtime concert for us at Wakefield Cathedral. They were equally at home in a range of styles and the audience thoroughly enjoyed their engaging and vibrant performance.

Yuko is a brilliant, charismatic musician. During our collaboration at Dronfield Music Tuition and Sheffield Teaching Hospitals I admired her proactiveness, organisational skills and most importantly her reliability as a team member. She is a very talented pianist and instrumental tutor and her maturity is evident.

Fly me to the moon
Moon River
A love that will last
Come away with me
Then there was you
Don’t know why
The way you look tonight
I love you for sentimental reasons

Unforgettable
How long will I love you
The very thought of you
Someone to watch over me
It’s been a long long time
A thousand years

La vie en rose
Cheek to cheek
Can’t help falling in love
Dream a little dream of me
How deep is your love
All of me
At last
This will be an everlasting love
Over the rainbow
What a wonderful world
Make you feel my love
Can’t take my eyes off of you
That’s Amore
I’ve got you under my skin
You and I
Quietly yours
Waking up slow
Love me tender
Only you
Every breath you take
Kiss me
Can't take my eyes off of you
