Mitsuko Uchida's Cross-Cultural Life
"I was born in Japan, and there's a Japanese bit of me that I wouldn't notice: I made a conscious decision not to lose my parents' language. Musically I flourished when I was speaking German - that was my real musical education - but the people I loved and who influenced me more than my teachers came through my third language, which is English." Financial Times 10/14/11
