Stories of Stonia

Description

With a voice that seems to speak to us from the heart of the Estonian forest, Mari Kalkun’s music is both distinctive and deeply personal. Rooted in ancient Estonian and Võru traditions but beautifully fresh and contemporary, *Stories of Stonia* reaches back into very old layers of tradition to imagine what Mari’s ancestors would have thought and sung about the world in the age of skyscrapers, steel and metal. Throughout the album’s nine songs, Mari explores humanity’s controversial relationship with nature against musical backdrops of great emotional power. Mari, one of Northern Europe’s most important folk singers, has created a mysterious and magical album.
