Kanahi Yamashita was born in Nagasaki in 1997. From early childhood she toured the USA, Europe and Asia with the Kazuhito Yamashita Family Quintet, who released two CDs, Kasane and Little Henny Penny finds love. At the age of 13 she gave her solo debut during a series of worldwide duo concerts with her father.
Since 2015 she has lived in Berlin, where she studies guitar with Professor Thomas Müller-Pering at the University of the Arts and also studies vocal pedagogy. She regularly gives solo and chamber music concerts, including in the great hall of the Konzerthaus Berlin, and is invited as a soloist to international festivals.
From 2016 Kanahi received a scholarship from the Yamaha Music Foundation, and from 2020 from the Rohm Music Foundation. She was a semi-finalist at the 66th ARD Music Competition in Munich in 2017. She has won various competitions, including the German Guitar Prize 2019 in Darmstadt.
Years of intensive musical training with Carlo Domeniconi ultimately led to the CD Selected Works VIII - Guitar solo: Kanahi Yamashita.
