Antti Tolvi - When instrument is in tune, music happens by itself

I remembered that ”When instrument is in tune, music happens by itself” was Ellen Fullman´s thought. Then I checked what she actually said was ”When you are really in tune, the music plays itself”. And I also noticed that it wasn’t Ellen´s own thought, she had heard it from her North Indian vocal music teacher Anita Slawek. So who knows who has said and what? But anyway it is a beautiful thought. Here I just tuned my kantele and let it play by itself. Of course I use here a little bit of my artistic freedom to create this beautiful miracle. But anyway, we don’t have to do and try so much. Just tune well and let the gravity and light do the work.

Piece is to be played with delicate volume. Thank you.

J. Koho - Harpolek

The joy of listening.
48 strings radiating,
rippling, shimmering
and vibrating together.
Reverberating through
the wooden body of a chord zither.

a 32 track compilation may seem daunting at first, but after a few tracks, something magical happens: you zone out and start listening to the tracks almost as part of the same ecosystem, and marvel at all the different shapes and colours and sounds. sleepyheadphone
