Satoshi Hori – Class of 1995 – now Daddy!

Baby Hori has arrived! Aimi was born on March 30th 2011, in London – UK, weighing 3.29kg.  Mummy (Lisa) and daughter are doing well and daddy, Satoshi Hori’95, cannot hold his smile!


Satoshi was a pupil at TBS from Primary School all the way up to the beginning of IB. He would have graduated in 1995 but left in 1994 when he won a music scholarship to study at Chetham’s School of Music in Manchester – UK.  He then won a scholarship to study at the Royal Academy of Music and Guildhall School of Music and Drama but decided that he wanted to pursue his “other dream of becoming a doctor” and  so went to medical school instead.


He qualified in Bachelor of Science (B.Sc) in Developmental Neurobiology with Basic Medical Sciences – King’s College London, University of London; in Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MB BS) – St. George’s Hospital Medical School, University of London. He is a Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England (MRCS) and he is currently studying for Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Oncology at the University of Cambridge (King’s College).   He is an Urological Surgeon at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Cambridge and MRC / The Prostate Cancer Charity Clinical Research Fellow, University of Cambridge.


He has also let us know that Naoki Hori (that would have graduated in 1997) now lives and works in Tokyo, Japan, and their mother, Yasuko Hori has now moved back to live in Osaka, Japan.


When Mr Wiseman heard about the news of the birth of Aimi and saw the family photo, he said “I enjoyed his magnificent piano playing enormously – he actually played a piano concerto with a major orchestra at the Theatro Municipal one Sunday which I witnessed. I note his daughter has a cellist’s fingers!”


We all have great memories of Satoshi playing for the entire school in the Hall!  Good old days!  Congratulations Satoshi, for all your achievements and for being the daddy of a lovely little girl.
