Elliot Kallen spent most of his early life as a keyboard player for many bands and on many stages.
25 years ago, circumstances led him to the Japanese bamboo flute and he became a student of David Kansuke Wheeler, a Kinko-ryū shakuhachi master in Boulder, CO.
Elliot also studied with Kansuke’s teacher, Kawase Junsuke III, the third generation head of Chikuyu-sha, the largest Kinko-ryū shakuhachi organization in Japan.
Elliot received his Shihan (masters license) and the performance name Kanshin (勘心)in 2018.
Elliot plays shakuhachi in a wide variety of contexts, from the meditative sounds of the Zen solo repertoire and traditional Japanese ensemble music with koto and shamisen, to the exploratory sounds of the avant-garde.
He is one of the organizers of the Sonoma Matsuri, a yearly Northern California festival of Japanese arts, crafts, and performing artists.
He performs, teaches, and facilitates workshops on Japanese classical music and the shakuhachi from his home base in Santa Rosa.
Elliot is the current President of the International Shakuhachi Society.
