Currently I am writing set of pieces inspired by traditional music of Lapland. For that I use different pictures of Lapland as well as my personal memories from a solo concert tour there around two years ago.
Sami music – traditional music of the place – is a very special one and, when sang, can touch a heart even without words (sometimes they sing only with syllables).
Here is a link to read about Sami music:

To listen: Mari Boine, for example. Or you can copy and paste this “AMAZING SÁMI FOLK MUSIC – Máddji”. It is more modern interpretation of traditions.
