- Estonian traditional folk music.
From the CD cover: "I came from Sweden to get to know Estonia, the land of my forefathers and -mothers. I suppose I was looking for That Something Special, and I have found it. The way folk chorales were once sung on the west coast of Estonia, the area of Estonian Swedish culture, has become meaningful to me. The songs both overcome and contain the borders between Sweden and Estonia, home and church, heaven and earth. Two folk singers, Emma Hardelin from Sweden and Meelika Hainsoo from Estonia, are very dear to me, and so are the sounds of Toivo Somer's zither and Janne Stromstedt's harmonium. We made "Strand...Rand" together. --Sofia Joons." CD insert contains all lyrics in Estonian and English.
