On the Record With ... Yukiko Fujimura

PINGREE GROVE – At 18, Yukiko Fujimura made the bold decision to leave her native country of Japan for the land of beer and cheese in Eau Claire, Wis.

The move, which Fujimura admits was crazy, paid off.

Fujimura, 29, had been playing piano since age 3 under the tutelage of her mother, who was a piano player herself. She had traveled to Vienna at 14 to study with world-renowned performer Noel Flores.
