Toshiko’s recordings have received a total of 14 Grammy Award nominations.
Summing up her own career, Toshiko, with characteristic modesty commented in an interview with the San Bemardino Sun, “I would hope that my work might have more substance and more quality rather than quantity of notes. And I hope the notes I produce today are more selective than 20 years ago.”
