About Sinikka Langeland
Sinikka Langeland is an award-winning vocalist, kantele player, and arranger from Norway. Her many solo and collaborative recordings have explored the roots of the rune songs of the Finnskogen, a region of Norway named for the immigration of Finnish people to the area in the 17th century. Utilizing the kantele ("harpu" in the indigenous Sami) -- a traditional plucked string instrument from the dulcimer and zither families in Finland and other Northern European countries -- Langeland is adept at recording alone or in groups of (sometimes seemingly disparate) musicians from musical genres as diverse as folk, vanguard classical music, and jazz. Active since the mid-'90s, she later found a home on the ECM roster where she recorded highlights like Starflowers (2007), The Half-Finished Heaven (2015), and Wind and Sun (2023).
