Fujiko Hemming

Born in Berlin to a Japanese pianist mother and a Russian-Swedish architect father. At 17, Fuzjko made her concert debut while still a high school student, and later won various prizes in major domestic competitions.

At the age of 28, Fuzjko went to the Berlin Institute of Music to further her musical studies. Her distinct performance led her to a professional concert career in Europe. Fuzjko’s debut CD, La Campanella, was released on August 25, 1999 and sold over two million copies, an unusual phenomenon in the classical music scene.

Since her domestic CD debut, Fuzjko has performed many solo recitals and has collaborated with Artis- Quartet Vienna, the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra (Yuri Simonov, conductor), the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra (Zoltan Kocsis, conductor), the Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra (Tamás Vásáry, conductor) etc.

She never forgets about her humanitarian obligation for others. Such examples of her compassionate nature can be seen in her actions, such as donating to the 9-11 victims, Afghan refugees, and to UNICEF.
