Arja Kastinen
The Last Gathering
Album FI 2012 on Temps Oy label
World (Nordic)
Finnish kantele player Arja Kastinen's solo album released in February 2012. In addition to the old plucking technique, the following techniques and objects were used to produce the sounds: harmonics, muted sounds, sliding and strumming with the tuning key, sliding, plucking and strumming with barbecue sticks, hitting with pencils, plucking with the sheath of a ballpoint pen (as a pick), a bow, tapping the soundboard, blowing into the sound hole, pressing the resonating top plate, waving the kantele, golden, bronze, clay and stone necklaces, a bunch of horse-hair and the hair of a witch, the wind, the night and the sauna – not to mention Matti’s studio wizardry.
