About the Artist
The kantele is a traditional Finnish lap-harp ranging in size from 5, 10 or 15 strings to upward of 30 strings. The Maine Kantele Consort has been in existence since November 2000 and has been performing publicly since June 2001. It is possible to combine a performance with a lecture/demonstration of the kantele and its importance in the Finnish culture. This is a one-of-a-kind ensemble in the state of Maine, and possibly New England.
