Hundinuia​õ​is * Bulrush Bloom

by Eva Väljaots

supported by

Darkmurmur Beautiful and varied landscapes painted with different acoustic kanteles. Often times meditative, but with a couple songs with higher energy create a welcomed diversity between the songs. I feel like this is exactly how kantele songs were meant to be made; contemplative with a fresh squeeze of ingenuity. Eva's take on music is both a great homage to the tradition and a new breeze to the contemporary scene.

Eva's debut is an important milestone album within the folk genre. Favorite track: Veealune / Underwater.

about

Hundinuiaõis * Bulrush Bloom is the debut solo album of Eva Väljaots – an Estonian kannel player with a distinctive style. It consists of her self-penned music, which she performs on several kannels, widening the playing techniques and bringing out the variegated timbre of her instruments. Each kannel opens up a unique world in Eva Väljaots’s picturesque soundscapes. Modern meets archaic in her music rich with improvisation and inspired by the present moment as well as her own heritage, age-old tales, and Finno-Ugric musical tradition. The music on the album is accompanied by Eva’s illustrations, which are published in the album booklet and follow the adventures of a bulrush bloom – a little and vigorous character who travels around the world.
