Profile

Kozo Kanatani was born in Kobe in 1966 and began the guitar at age 10 under the direction of Katsuo Kobayashi and Ichiro Okamoto. He went to France in 1984 where he studied at the Conservatoire National Superieur de Musique de Paris under Alexandre Lagoya and Carel Harms, and at the Universite Musicale Internationale de Paris under Michel Sadanowsky. He also participated in Leo Brouwer’s masterclasses in the south of France and The Netherlands. During his studies abroad, he appeared on Radio France’s modern music program and was involved in the performance of many new works. In Paris in 1989 at the Salle Cortot, he gave his debut recital with a modern music program. He has won numerous awards in domestic and international competitions, including first place at the 2nd Chanterelle International Guitar Competition and third at the 43rd Tokyo International Guitar Competition (the highest for a guitarist from Japan). With a wide repertoire spanning music from the Baroque, Classical, and modern periods, Kozo Kanatani is highly acclaimed for his aesthetics of sound and for his refined artistic expression, both tools which he uses for communicating his great love for music. Since 2011 he has started performing on the eleven-string guitar to explore new soundscapes.

He currently lives in Nara prefecture where he performs publicly and privately at various venues mainly in kansai region where he lives with his family. He also teaches aspiring students. He also regularly appears at train stations in Nara area and perform to the general public.
