Keiran Cantilina, Carillonneur

Keiran Cantilina hails from Stewartsville, New Jersey. He was introduced to bell instruments during his university years, where he was a player of Cornell University's historic twenty-one-bell chime. During his graduate studies at the University of Minnesota, Keiran began studying the carillon with Dave Johnson at the House of Hope carillon in St. Paul. In 2018–2019 he studied carillon in Belgium—the cradle of world carillon culture—with Koen Van Assche on a scholarship from the Belgian American Education Foundation. He graduated from the Royal Carillon School in Mechelen and was a finalist in the Queen Fabiola International Carillon Competition held in 2019. Keiran is a Carillonneur Member of the Guild of Carillonneurs in North America. He has a BS in biological sciences and an MS in bioproducts and biosystems engineering. He is a senior research engineer in biomedical engineering at the Cleveland Clinic Lerner Research Institute. In addition to his research and his carillon playing, Keiran says he enjoys “restoring old typewriters, pickling, amateur radio, and building dangerously speedy electric scooters.” Keiran is a member of the board of directors of the Friends of the McGaffin Carillon in University Circle and is a frequent guest artist on the Alexander McGaffin Memorial Carillon.
