Kymmenkieli is a duo that makes danceable modern Finnish folk music!

Musicians Viive Virtanen (fiddle) and Carolina Stenbäck (cello) offer you traditional music as well as their own tradition-based compositions, flavored with their unique Kymmenkieli sound. The Kymmenkieli sound consists of playful fiddle melodies combined with strong cello accompaniment, that are often twisted the other way around, playing with the different possible roles of these two instruments. We’re pretty sure that your feet will start stamping the floor when listening to this duo!
