Have a great first Kantele Day with our playlist

In Finland, there are about 5,000 kantele players, 70 music schools where you can learn the instrument and about a hundred professionals teaching it. Finland's national instrument, the kantele, now also has its own holiday on September 16th, the Kantele day, organized by Kanteleliitto.

To celebrate the first ever Kantele Day, we compiled a Spotify playlist filled with contemporary kantele music from Finland. Dig into the newest sounds coming from an ancient instrument from the playlist embedded below – or go straight to Spotify and save the list to your favorites!
