JAZZed: Cover Story Interview with Alumna Satoko Fujii ’96 GD
JAZZed recently connected with Satoko Fujii to learn about her path as a musician, her approach to learning, and what approaches to jazz education she feels are most effective.
“At NEC I worked hard not to play like anyone else. I found my own voice,” says Fujii, who studied with Paul Bley at NEC.
I have been seeing many beginners and students who are so afraid to make mistakes.
Well…making mistakes is the best way to learn. Without mistakes we cannot learn.
