Description:
Ethereal voices of angelic purity. This is Loituma's follow-up to their critically acclaimed debut CD Things of Beauty.
This young quartet combine lush vocal harmonies with the crystalline sounds of the kantele (Finnish harp). They display an even greater versatility here, with a beautifully varied song selection spanning a wide range of Finnish traditional repertoire, and instrumentation that ranges from four-part unaccompanied vocals to four-part kantele instrumentals.
