Ema Mitarai was born in Japan, into a musical family, and began playing the violin and the piano at the age of 3, and the harp at the age of 12. She began giving recitals on the harp from a young age. At age 19 she successfully auditioned for the Toho Gakuen College of Music in Tokyo, studying with the internationally renowned teacher Josef Molnar, where she gained her BMus degree in Performance and her Teaching Diploma. In 1998 she was awarded a grant from the Rotary Foundation to continue her studies in the United Kingdom at the Royal Northern College of Music with Frank Sternfield, where she was also awarded a bursary by the college, and subsequently gained a Postgraduate Diploma in Advanced Study in Performance.
