Shakuhachi Performance

 

Elizabeth Reian Bennett and Chris Molina will perform a "Winter Meditation" at First Parish in Malden on Sunday, January 8th at 10:30 am. Reian Bennett is the first woman to play professionally as a Grand Master of the shakuhachi - the Japanese bamboo flute - and stands out as one of only a handful of western players trained in traditional Japanese music. She has studied and performed with Living National Treasure Aoki Reibo, recognized as Japan's foremost shakuhachi instrumentalist, for over 30 years.
