Miho’s Jazz Orchestra (MJO) is a 5 piece ensemble based in Auckland, led by Japanese-born multi instrumentalist and composer Miho Wada. Miho studied flute at the University of Canterbury, Trinity College of Music in London and in Havana and Santiago de Cuba. She has performed in Italy, France, UK, Morocco, Greece, Spain, Malta, Switzerland, Cuba, Japan, Australia, USA and New Zealand.
