by Ben Serna-Grey - American composer
Another chapter in the song cycle based off of the Kalevala, Finland's national epic, this one tells the story of Aino, who is promised to Vainamoinen in marriage. Aino's dislike of this arrangement is so strong that she commits suicide and becomes a salmon, forever haunting the old man. It utilizes several extended techniques such as strummed and bowed piano and pitch bends to tell its story.
