Aléa's music makes the Finnish national instrument kantele and the clarinet groove in a way you never heard before.

Aléa is a Finnish folk music duo formed by Aurora Visa and Annika Lyytikäinen in 2014. Their debut album Fredriksgatan was released in early 2023. Aléa´s music makes the Finnish national instrument kantele and the clarinet groove in a way you never heard before. While their musical roots reach deep into the Nordic tradition, Aléa asks modern listeners of the 2020´s for a dance. Since their start, Aléa has performed actively in the Finnish folk music scene as well as for audiences new to folk music both domestically and internationally. In Finnish the duo is also known for their Finnish podcast Huliviliflikat. Both of them are graduated from the Folk Music program at the Sibelius academy.
