Anna-Kaisa Liedes
48
The music of Anna-Kaisa Liedes and the Utua group has its roots deep in the Finnish-Carelian-Ingrian folk song tradition. On this recording, Anna-Kaisa Liedes combines traditional verses with contemporary musical idiom, giving them a fresh and personal touch. Inspired by the eternal themes of traditional poetry love, disappointment, passion, and the odd interlacement of love and hatred, she paints her epic interpretations with subtle tones and expressive vowel colours.

Besides Finno-Ugrian song tradition, Anna-Kaisa Liedes specializes in voice improvisation. Fine examples of her narrative voice art are the CDs 'ÄäniMerkki' and 'Pidot!'. With the vocal ensemble MeNaiset (on two CDs titled 'MeNaiset' and 'Mastorava'), she explores the Finno-Ugrian musical treasures.
