Apparently she (Hiromi Uehara) met Chick Corea at a workshop or something when she was 17, and he invited her to come play at his concert the next night...
btw, it was an interesting path that lead me to this clip. A Miles Davis track popped up in iTunes, so I looked up some live Miles in the 70s, and then found a clip of him with Carlos Santana in the 80s... then watched some Santana with John McLaughlin, which lead me to a clip of McLaughlin and Paco de Lucia playing this song (Spain) by Chick Corea, which lead me... here.
Miles > Santana > John McLaughlin > Chick Corea > Hiromi Uehara
