International recording artist Yukiko Matsuyama bridges eras and cultures. From performing with Shakira at the Latin Grammy Awards, recording with Paul Winter on his Grammy Award Winning Album, 'Miho: Journey to the Mountain' *Best New Age Album), to performing with Motown Legend James Gadson, Yukiko shares the sound of the Japanese Koto with diverse audiences worldwide.
Her compositions for Koto and western instruments delve into a joyous and celebrative blend of world and pop music.
She delivers the sound of the ancient 7th-century instrument with authority and grace while infusing elements of jazz, pop, new age, and world music into her mesmerizing compositions.
Chris Kenji Beer is a keyboard player who has performed Koto Jazz locally and nationally, which is variations of traditional Japanese koto music and "nature-inspired" melodies with an infusion of western rhythm and jazz.
