He is a founding member of the American alternative band Wild Colonials, in which he plays violin, piano, and accordion. Since the 1990s, he has also recorded and performed with a diverse range of artists including Yo Yo Ma, Joe Cocker, The Kinks, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, George Clinton, Rickie Lee Jones, King Crimson, Everclear, and Ry Cooder.
In the 1990s and early 2000s, he played piano in a jazz-inflected group that also featured Lili Haydn on violin, Martin Tillman on cello, and Satnam Singh Ramgotra on tablas. They released a self-titled CD under the name Luciana's Wish. In 2000, under the name Tryptich, they released an EP of cover songs called Curio, with vocals by Angela McCluskey.
Cantelon wrote vibrant film scores for the two literary adaptations, "Everything is Illuminated" and "The Diving Bell & The Butterfly." He was chosen because he had to relearn music after a terrible accident left him with amnesia. He had been a prodigious, promising composer beforehand, and had to learn everything again. His personal history fit with the themes of the films, of searching for one's past.

My dear friend, I love all that is sweet, tender and kind, even kisses and caresses! Therefore, I love your sentence; I love the agreeable, sweet music; I love sweetness in human relationships and, even more, I love sweet honey. A tender hug for you. Merry Christmas! Filippo

Vorrei non esistesse nessun muro che ci divide...ma la pace e la serenità che ci unisce..soave questa musica che sprigiona seppur nella sua malinconica armonia..un andante che poi diventa allegro ..si perché si possa abbattere questo muro....BUONA DOMENICA. .una lieve carezza🙋Nina

+vogliadivolare99 Grazie Nina. In maniera più realistica io temo che i muri o barriere reali (sono 45) e quelli mentali (infinite) ci saranno sempre. Difficile abbattere un barriera quando essa è parte della nostra stessa coscienza. La teoria dell'inclusione sarà sempre superata dall'istinto della protezione di ciò che abbiamo e che temiamo di perdere. Avessimo tutti prospettive più ampie....ma non le abbiamo. Così va il mondo! Buona domenica anche a te. Filippo

+giovannidanz31 Grazie a Te, caro Giovanni. Sono lieto che il brano sia di tuo gusto. Paul Cantelon è specialista di musica da film e dalla colonna sonora di "Everything is illuminated" - bellissimo film che ti invito a vedere - ho tratto ulteriori brani creando altri due video. Sono in un'apposita playlist P. Cantelon. Ti auguro una magnifica giornata (di sole). Ciao! Filippo
