Grandmaster Riley Lee, world-renowned shakuhachi master, performs an online one-hour
Benefit concert for Lawai International Center at 4:00 p.m. Hawai'i time on Sunday,
September 20, 2026 (Postponed, new date TBD). Grandmaster Lee shares the magic and
power of Lawai, a place that calms the spirit and stills the mind.
He is the first non-Japanese to have achieved the rank of grandmaster of the 7th

snow and playing his flute under a waterfall.
For 20 years, during the Pilgrimage of Compassion, Grandmaster Lee led the

plays the shakuhachi at Lawai, he sets in motion the forces of earth and air, people
and place, and the swirling power of the ha.
