Torii Komudō

尺八

Torii Komudō was born in Kumamoto on February 1, 1882. After graduating from the former Kumamoto Junior High School, he moved to Tokyo and attended Meiji University. In Tokyo, he began his shakuhachi studies at Chikuyusha, the famous school of Kawase Junsuke I. His many years of devotion and his natural talent for music soon made him a master of the art, and he was allowed to open his own dojo in Tokyo. At that time, his bamboo (performance) name "Wakana" was well known as a shakuhachi player with remarkable memorization skills.
However, after the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923, he moved back to his hometown of Kumamoto and established his own dojo as the Wakana-kai. There he took the name Komudō. He worked with shamisen master Hase Daikengyo (Yuki) to further his own understanding of the essence of Jiuta.
In 1969, in an autumn Conferment of Decoration ceremony, he was awarded the Order of the Rising Sun, and a celebratory concert was held in Kumamoto City on February 22 of 1970.
He was an important figure in the world of traditional Japanese music, having collaborated with Jiuta shamisen master Abe Keiko, a Living National Treasure, recording famous pieces such as Zangetsu, Wakana, Yube no Kumo, and Shin Musume Dojoji.
His high artistic standards helped to spread and improve the shakuhachi tradition while fostering many masters, including Yoshida Seifu, and continues to this day.
A man of tenacious spirit, it’s said he always enjoyed a cup of sake.
He passed away from complications of a stroke on July 31, 1970, at the age of 88.
