Profile

Yoichi Uzeki (Pianist, Arranger, Composer and Train Lover)
Born in Tokyo in 1976. Yoichi started taking classical piano lessons and loving trains at the age of three. He started playing jazz and traveling around Japan by train at the freshman year of Hosei University in Tokyo.

After Yoichi joined one of the best college big bands in Japan called "Waseda University High Society Orchestra" in 1998, he won every contest he appeared as a pianist of the band including two consecutive (in1998, 1999) first prizes of Yamano Big Band Contest, which is considered the nationwide annual college big band contest in Japan. His big band arrangement of "Spain" is on their live recording CD also called "Spain" in 2000.

Yoichi purposely chose Richmond VA to study English and no train funning at first. He moved to Philadelphia to study at Temple University and had great teachers such as Terell Stafford, Tom Lawton, Bruce Barth and Bill Cunliffe. Some features during Philadelphia-era includes two Villanova Jazz Festival Soloist Awards (both small group and large ensemble) in 2002, recording of a Temple University Jazz Band CD "Mean What you Say," which includes his big band piece "Not a Love Song" in 2003, providing an arrangement of "I've never been in love before" for a performance with a legendary saxophonist and flutist Frank Wess at the Kimmel Center in Philadelphia in 2004, performing weekly with world-known bassist, Jamaaladeen Tacuma including a performance at West Oak Lane Jazz Festival and joining Amtrak "Guest Rewards."

His love of larger subway and train system and jazz made him finally move to New York City in 2005. Yoichi went to Queens College CUNY and received a master's degree. In Addition to Temple faculties, he studied with Ted Rosenthal, David Berkman, Michael Philip Mossman and Antonio Hart.

Currently, Yoichi is a piano faculty at York College CUNY, perform around New York City, Philadelphia, New Jersey, Washington DC and Tokyo and providing arrangements to school bands as well as professional big bands such as Brooklyn Big Band. He have performed with Terell Stafford, Oliver Lake, Bobby Porcelli, Manny Duran, Peter Brainin, Michael Hawkins, Walter Bell and among others.
