Nakagawa Eijiro (Nakagawa Eijiro, October 7, 1975 ) is a Japanese trombonist and composer, born in Tokyo(1975), Eijiro is already busy playing along side some of the top musicians in both Japan and the USA. Having been brought up in a very musical family, Eijiro started to play trombone at the age of 5. By the time he was 6, he was already performing "I'm Getting Sentimental Over You" in his father's band. While being influenced by JJ Johnson, Carl Fontana and Urbie Green, Eijiro attended the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music where he studied with Kiyoshi Itoh of the NHK Symphony Orchestra. Soon after, he was sent abroad to seminars at the Berklee School of Music - all this, by the time he was 16.
With the support of Yamaha-Japan, Eijiro has designed his own models of both tenor and bass trombones. Yamaha has also helped Eijiro become known throughout Japan and the United States.
Eijiro has several projects presently in the works. His new Japanese jazz group, the "Beat Detectives" had their first live performance at Blues Alley Japan. In New York he has teamed up with Jim Pugh in a new group, "E'nJ" which has just completed it's first CD after being a hit at the Blue Note. With these and other new projects under way, Eijiro Nakagawa is certain to become a prominent musical voice on both sides of the world.
