Through my work I want to remind people

there is beauty in imperfection and who they are now

is all they ever need to be.

Thank you for reminding me that it’s enough just to be me.

I’d like to express my heartfelt gratitude to RMPBS, Donald Rossa, Kelley Dawkins, Gift of Jazz, Randy Brecker and Greg Gilbert for helping me breathe life into my vision that blossomed into something so much more than I could ever have imagined.

I’m impressed with her. Her music has consistency, is intelligent and resonates with joy. Also, her compositions have a lot of personality. They all have who she is in them. And, these days, that’s a rare quality. They feel really honest and are uncluttered by things meant to impress in a pretentious way. She simply doesn’t try to prove something by moving away from who she is.

Multi-Grammy Award Winning Composer

if you are in the mood for something completely original and different then this is the CD for you! Chie Imaizumi has managed to capture Japanese sensibility, emotion and culture and mix it with creative big band writing, wonderful soloists and the American Jazz tradition. The result is a unique and quite amazing meeting of two worlds!
