about

Inspired by the rune poems of adventurer shaman Lemminkäinen, the third main character of the Kalevala, who undergoes a series of quests between Manala (netherworld) and Pohjola (upper realms). Those quests were built to uncover a mystery, recover an item, or a find partner for marriage. This piece utilizes a driving 5/4 tempo symbolizing those many journeys undertaken throughout the folklore.
