Description: Kerstin's fascination for music started at an early age and hasn't waned since! She grew up listening to classical music before going on to take recorder and piano lessons. Parallel to this she was always singing, and became a member of various choirs, later a bluegrass band and her first Celtic project, the Scottish band SÍOBHRA, where she developed further skills on guitar, mandoline and bouzouki. After school she studied musicology and Scandinavian languages and cultures in Berlin (Germany) and in Bergen (Norway), with particular emphasis on Norwegian folk music. Today she tours all over the world with a wide variety of different projects, ranging from studio work and theatre-music productions to the Celtic groups TOUCHWOOD with Belfast musician Cristina Crawley, TALKING WATER and NORLAND WIND (featuring Thomas Loefke and Clannad-members Pádraig and Noel Duggan). This video was taken at the "Nordic Folk Night", Werkstatt der Kulturen, Berlin 12.5.04 Share with friends
