The Estonian Kannel: A Bridge Between Nature, Myth, and Melody
Few instruments reflect the soul of a nation quite like the kannel does for Estonia. With its shimmering timbre and timeless shape, the kannel is not just an artifact of folk culture—it is a living, breathing part of Estonia’s musical identity, echoing through forests, festivals, and even modern concert halls. This delicate zither-like instrument has evolved through centuries, carrying with it stories of ancient rituals, national awakening, and artistic reinvention.
