Talviuni (My own kantele song)

Howdy! This is a song I wrote with my 10-string kantele with some photos I took from the nearby woods. I'm not that great player and you can propably hear that, it's a bit sloppy on couple spots...

Beautiful! Absolutely gorgeous... Does Talviuni mean Winter Dream? I know very little Finnish but I know talvi = winter and unia = dream.

@WynterSong Thanks! Yeah "Winter Dream" is the straight translation, but it doesn't quite capture the whole meaning. But I can't really come up with a better translation.

This was really a beautiful tune, and I didn't even notice the 'sloppy spots'.

[WilburWhateley1]

@KalahariKAri Thank you. Yeah I guess the bad notes ring out to me more than regular listeners :)

A brilliant piece of music! Now I'm even more convinced to buy a 10 string kantele! :D

[WilburWhateley1]

@Brynke Hehe, I'm glad to hear that.

[WynterSong]

@WilburWhateley1 I see. :) Well, I can -feel- a deeper meaning through the song.

@WilburWhateley1 I am with KalahariKAri, I didn't notice any messy parts. If they are there they make the song more unique.

Niin kaunis.

Thank you very much! It's an open back one, I bought it from the local music store for 150 euros. I've never tried a closed one so I can't really say which one is better.
