Concert at Pitkyaranta

On April 1,2021 the Kantele Fusion MusicLab was held in Ptkyaranta.  This time the Kantele-GO! artists worked with music students of the Pitkyaranta children' music school who got to know more about possibility to use kantele in different music genres and styles. Participants of the creative workshop played traditional 5-string kantele and chromatic 39 - string kantele trying to make a story sound and listened to kantele compositions by Karelian and Finnish authors. 

The Kantele-GO! project is thankful to the director of the Pitkyaranta chidren' music school Aleksandr Shutikhin for his cooperation and hospitality. 

Project  partners: The Karelian National Song and Dance Ensemble Kantele (Russia), University of Eastern Finland, Runosong Academy (Finland), National School of Arts named after V. Kalaberda of Pryazha District (Russia).

The Kantele-GO! project is financed by the European Union, the Russian Federation and the Republic of Finland within the framework of the Karelia CBC Programme.
