Episode 10: Kalmistu - The Days of the Dead | Libretto Short Stories

from Chronicles from the Lake Ladoga Shores · host Libretto Orchestra

Twice a year—at Kekri in autumn and Easter in spring—the boundary between living and dead grew thin. Families gathered in graveyards to feast with their ancestors, leaving food on graves, speaking to the departed as if they could hear. Because they believed the dead could hear, were present, were still part of the community. Experience the beautiful practice of pomiluttaminen, where mourning and celebration merged, and death was not ending but transformation.🎵 Libretto Orchestra Music Albums: Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube🌐 libretto.fi#folktales #folkfore #KarelianFolklore #laatokka #LakeLadoga #laatokankansantaruja  #KansantarujaLaatokanluoteisrannikolta #TheodorSchwindt
