About
A classical flutist and performer of traditional Japanese music, Nozomi Kanda is a versatile musician, specialising in chamber music and recitals, with a marked expertise in contemporary performance. A graduate in traditional Japanese music, she is also a master of the shinobue, a Japanese flute that she incorporates into contemporary works.
Under the influence of Yukihiko Nishizawa, a specialist in contemporary Japanese music and an admirer of Toru Takemitsu, Nozomi Kanda has devoted herself to promoting the contemporary repertoire for transverse flute and shinobue. Trained by Kohei Nishikawa, a leading figure in contemporary Japanese music, and Rio Tosha, a specialist in traditional music, she performs regularly in concerts combining Japanese and European instruments. She has commissioned and premiered several works by leading composers, including Nicolas Bacri, David Loeb and Jan Freidlin, some of them world or Asian premieres. Her work has been praised in the international press, and she was a guest commentator on Musiq'3 at the 2018 Ars Musica Festival in Brussels.
