Aino Peltomaa is a Finnish singer and musician known for her distinctive work across medieval, folk, contemporary and improvised music. Her artistic approach weaves together early music traditions with folk, jazz, electronics, and visual arts, creating evocative and genre-defying projects.

Peltomaa leads and co-leads several ensembles, including Peltomaa Fraanje Perkola, Ensemble Gamut!, Amor Céu, Harmony of the Spheres. She has released numerous critically acclaimed albums on labels such as Outhere Music, Eclipse Music, Aspen Edities, and Alba Records. Her projects are regularly featured on international stages and radio, with appearances across Europe and beyond.

"The first thing that strikes you is the startling beauty and purity of Aino Peltomaa’s soprano voice, taking its lead from Gregorian chant, Hildegard von Bingen and traditional folk. It emerges from an eclectic mix of instrumentation, archaic but also innovative, echo adding a mysterious edge.”
-Jez Rowden/The Progressive Aspect

BIO Ensemble Gamut!
Ensemble Gamut! is a fresh, experimental collective of early music and folk music specialists, who are constantly searching for new ways to perform early music. Led by Aino Peltomaa, they have created their unique sound by combining and daringly rearranging elements from medieval music and Finnish folk songs with improvisation and electronic soundscapes.

BIO Peltomaa Fraanje Perkola
Trio Peltomaa Fraanje Perkola combines the sounds of the human voice, piano and viola da gamba with electronic effects and medieval harp. The players have diverse back- grounds in early music, jazz, Finnish folk music and contemporary music, although it was medieval music that was the inspiration for their highly personal and recognisable sound.
