In the age of digital music it seems striking that so many of us
still want to produce music concretely with our bodies, through the
movement of our limbs, lungs and fingers, in contact with those
materials and objects which are capable of producing sounds. The
huge sales figures of musical instruments in the global market, and
the amount of time and effort people of all ages invest in
mastering the tools of music, make it clear that playing musical
instruments is an important phenomenon in human life. By combining
the findings made in music psychology and performative
ethnomusicology, Marko Aho shows how playing a musical instrument,
and the pleasure musicians get from it, emerges from an intimate
dialogue between the personally felt body and the sounding
instrument. An introduction to the general aspects of the tactile
resources of musical instruments, musical style and the musician is
followed by an analysis of the learning process of the regional
kantele style of the Perho river valley in Finnish Central
Ostrobothnia.
