I
began research for a doctoral dissertation on the Finnish kantele in 1982. On this site I
make that
dissertation available. For a more concise and scholarly
approach, I refer the reader to my kantele and gusli articles published in the
second edition of the New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians.
See also my Baltic
psaltery bibliography.
