Pauliina Lerche "Vot I Kaalina"

http://www.facebook.com/kantelar

Pauliina Lerche is one of the many Finnish folk musicians who have their roots in the small North Karelian village of Rääkkylä near the Russian border. Her musical career began in the original line-up of the most famous of the folk bands stemming from this small village, Värttinä, but she had early on found the musical direction she wanted to pursue. Studies at the Folk Music Department of the Sibelius Academy only served to strengthen this musical vision and after graduating in 2002, she has quickly become one of the most personal ambassadors of Finnish folk music on the world music scene. Pauliina is a multi-instrumentalist whose instruments include accordion, violin, kantele, deltar and her own voice. She composes, arranges and writes lyrics for her own material in which she combines her solid background in the Karelian tradition with influences from both world and popular music.

Wholly agreed... from Brazil, I say the same - perhaps for some people like us the Voice of the Origins, the Blood, just speak louder within us than what happens around us, on our immediate surroundings. In general, I live and breathe the Old World, it just saves me from a meaningless life among a "people" that is just a bunch of unconnected persons without a sense of their past or memory. THIS TRUELY IS MUSIC.

Wonderful Finnish Music" As a young child, she was a member of VÄRTTINÄ, too. Hopefully, there will be a CD soon

Thank you Europe and surrounding countries for saving me, an American, from the 1000's of radios stations playing Enimem (sp), Taylor Swift, and Linkin Park on merciless, unending cycle.... This truely is music.
