Let's make this birthday one to remember.

76 years old (Born on December 20, 1948)

Happy Birthday to the extraordinary Mitsuko Uchida! Your fingers dance across piano keys with such elegance and precision, even Mozart himself would pause in awe. From your captivating interpretations of Schubert sonatas to your mesmerizing performances of Beethoven concertos, you've enchanted audiences worldwide—proving that classical music truly has no expiration date.

As co-director of Marlboro Music School and Festival, you've inspired countless musicians to find their own voices (and perhaps practice a bit more diligently). May this birthday bring you as much joy as you've brought us through every note played. Here's hoping your day hits all the right keys!
