One of a very famous story for Japan Jazz is that Hiromi Uehara had a remarkable encounter with Chick Corea to play the piano in front of him when she was 16 years old.
In fact she got a lot of lead from several jazz giants. One of them is Stanley Clarke!
Stanley Clarke and Hiromi Uehara released two albums.
JAZZ IN THE GARDEN in 2009
