This is how TAEKO sometimes opens up her song when singing American Jazz Standards to Japanese audience. She takes a simple and pretty song such as Blue Moon, gives her own line-by-line interpretations in Japanese and brings the audience to the same page in the most organic way..... pretty cool? Enjoy!
TAEKO is an established contemporary jazz singer from Japan, based in New York, brings her love and art to all over the globe. For more information about TAEKO, visit
