Kobayashi Kaori’s mother is a piano teacher, so she started teaching when she was not yet one year old. Treating the piano as a toy, he began to formally learn piano playing from his mother when he was three years old.

When I was in the first grade of junior high school, I joined the school wind band and started practicing flute playing.

When I was in the second grade of high school, after listening to the alto saxophone performance, I was deeply attracted by the sound of the instrument and the playing style, and started learning to play the saxophone.

In the next year and a half, he studied classical saxophone with Hitomi Hara, a well-known Japanese female saxophone master.

In her third year of high school, Kaori Kobayashi changed her playing style from classical to jazz.

< p> "I hope to convey my thoughts to others by playing the saxophone. Growing up, I have experienced many beautiful things through many people; now, I hope to convey these beautiful experiences from myself. If I can allow everyone to embrace their dreams and hopes through my performance and my music, that would be what I would be most happy to see."

It is hard to imagine that such a firm musical concept started from the beginning. Said by a 23-year-old female performer with good looks. Beneath Kaori Kobayashi’s beautiful appearance is a surprising persistence in music.

Not limited by appearance, the saxophone played by Kaori Kobayashi, under her playing skills, shows the power and masculinity of a male player. It is difficult to imagine that this is a beautiful woman. Girl's performance. Such a unique contrast also appeared in the process of Kaori Kobayashi learning to play the saxophone. With her interest and foundation in classical music, she chose to specialize in jazz after entering Senzu Gakuen Music University. It can only be said that Kobayashi Kaori was born with funky and lively notes flowing in her blood.

Although Kaori Kobayashi’s father is now engaged in photography, when he was a student, he played in a band from morning to night and was a rock music fanatic. Her mother is a piano teacher. When she was pregnant with Kaori Kobayashi, she chose FUSHION as prenatal music. In such a family environment, she has been immersed in music since she was a child. When she was in junior high school, she joined the wind band to learn the flute. She briefly gave up playing until she was in the second grade of high school when she decided to specialize in saxophone. Kaori Kobayashi's persistence in music is a manifestation of calmness and intelligence rather than a passionate blind belief, fully demonstrating the unique ideas of today's young people.

Kobayashi Kaori’s playing skills are directly reminiscent of the Japanese-made “Candy Dulfer”. For Kobayashi Kaori, who regards Candy Dulfer as her idol, it is certainly a kind of praise; however, she On the one hand, he is a funk little wildcat who respects performers such as Candy Dulfer, David Sanborn, and Maceo Parker. On the other hand, he is also a jazz original style who firmly believes in masters such as John Coltrane and Cannon Edley. Underneath his young and beautiful appearance, he shows his dedication to jazz music. Under the appearance that most people think of as a beautiful girl, Kobayashi Kaori presents a musical concept that subverts ordinary people's perceptions. This sense of imbalance also exudes Kobayashi Kaori's unfathomable charm.
