Loituma - Things Of Beauty (Mp3 Download)

Review by Steven McDonald @ allmusic.com
First released in Finland in a slightly different form, Things of Beauty is the initial release from this Finnish quartet. Their specialty is the kantele, a Finnish harp, and they use this both in instrumental pieces and multi-layered vocal arrangements. The music ranges from the lively interpretations of Finnish folk music to haunting pieces about mysterious marshland. A light, sweet album that well deserves the attention NorthSide is providing.
