OMJ Jazz & Etno: Senni Heiskanen ja Rauno Nieminen

Join us for an enchanting evening of music at the OMJ Jazz & Ethno concert featuring the talented duo Senni Heiskanen and Rauno Nieminen! 🌟

They have been performing together for seven years, showcasing the rare and beautiful sounds of the five-string brass kantele. 🎹 Their repertoire is deeply rooted in the kantele melodies collected over a century ago from the rich traditions of Savo, Karelia, and Northern Ostrobothnia.

🔔 The concert promises an impressive blend of traditional melodies and stylistically informed improvisations that unravel a musical tapestry from just a few notes, creating a unique auditory experience.

Don't miss the chance to enjoy the magic from their recent album, The Brass Kanteles of Kerma, which shines a light on this exceptional instrument and its long-standing heritage.

🔍 “The whole range of their melodies is confined to these five notes; with these five notes they play, dance, and sing their poems.” — Giuseppe Acerbi, 1802
