Ms.Mieko Eigen was student of mine at Kunitachi College of Music. During her studies there,She proved herself to be an exceptionally talented musician with a splendid technique. She is very musical and has a deep understanding of the music architecture. Her technique is very solid,very refined,and she can play any piace with great facility. An example of this is her playing of Stravinsky’s Petrouchka,a work she plays with great ease, fluency and conviction. She graduated Kunitachi Collage of Music as the top, number one,student. Since than,she has continued to study privately with me, enlarging her repertoire and giving recitals. For one of her last recitals, she chose to include Scriabin’s complete op.12 Etudes. As you might well know, there are demanding piaces, and she has played them with professional ease. Once more,I would like to re-iterate than Ms. Mieko Eigen is a wonderful musician equipped with first class technique,excellent,timbre,and is lucky to be graced with musical expressiveness.?
