About Yoko Miwa

Berklee identifies Miwa as a pianist, composer, bandleader, and associate professor in its piano department. Yamaha’s artist biography traces her classical training in Kobe, jazz studies with Minoru Ozone, and scholarship-supported move to Berklee in 1997.[1][2]

Her Boston-area practice joins teaching with the Yoko Miwa Trio, which Berklee identifies as a resident artist at the Mad Monkfish in Cambridge. The faculty page also documents performances at Boston rooms including Scullers and Regattabar alongside a wider international schedule.[1]

Berklee’s profile lists nine trio albums, from In the Mist of Time through Songs of Joy, across Japanese, independent, and UK labels. It also links Miwa’s official YouTube channel and embeds a trio performance, offering a direct route from the catalog to the music.[1][3]
