“Deer Calling” is a stringed instrument which generates its tones through the tailoring of strings along the unique shape of a deer’s antlers. Its tone may resound the howling roar of the very lord of nature. The antlers came from a deer who was hunted down by a local hunter and bequeathed to me. In Japan, one often hears of how damaging deer can be, but they are one of god’s creations.
