For an hour each week, Northern Lights focuses exclusively on Scandinavian and Baltic music. In today’s episode: jazz and folk from Finland from two new albums with the best Finland has to offer.
Our musical exploration in Northern Lights isn’t limited by style or fame: we listen to the old and certainly the new, to the familiar and the unknown. We will cover the entire spectrum of classical music and crossover.
