About Riko Fukuda
Riko Fukuda studied oboe and piano at the Toho-Gakuën conservatory in Japan. A grant from the Dutch government enabled her to study with Stanley Hoogland at the Royal Conservatory in The Hague, where she specialised in playing the fortepiano. She is a founder member of the Nepomuk Fortepiano Quintet with whom she has made two CD recordings, piano quintets of Ferdinand Ries, Franz Limmer, Johann Nepomuk Hummel, Jan Ladislav Dussek and George Onslow (Brilliant Classics). The third CD recording with quintets of Franz Schubert (the Trout Quintet) and John Cramer has been recorded and will be released end of 2007. Playing the harpsichord she made a CD with Sonatas of Johann Sebastian Bach with recorder player Ronald Moelker (Aliud). Also her solo CDs with works of George Pinto (Olympia) and Jan Ladislav Dussek (Partridge) were praised in the press and in 2001 two CDs with piano sonatas of Haydn were released (Brilliant Classics). Three new solo CDs with Mendelssohn, Schubert and Chopin are in preparation. She has performed frequently at the Early Music Festival in Utrecht and appears regularly at other festivals in Europe and America, such as the concert series of violinist Sergiu Luca in Houston. Her new cd is called Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy.
