Hi! Even in the northern parts of Europe there’s definitely a promise of spring in the air although right now it feels it’s suspended…anyway, the next trip for me will be to northern Italy, southwest of Turin. Operation Mobilization (OM) runs a three-month course for artists who are into mission work, a course where the craft of the particular art form is not taught per se, but more the thinking and the Biblical foundation behind it. I will be teaching/meeting the participants during the third week of April. Very much looking forward to that. ü You can check out this: http://news.om.org/country-article/r30130

Another thing: The Finnish album (which means I’m going to write this mainly in Finnish; the plan is to post rough English translations on the lyrics though – very soon)… Eli, AVOIN TAIVAS – Lauluja Hilja Aaltosen sydämeltä menee  huomenna masterointiin ja tämän kuun viimeisellä viikolla pitäisi levy olla kädessä. Tämä on ollut toisenlainen ja mielenkiintoinen projekti; on ollut hienoa saada tutustua Hiljaan ja hänen ajatuksiinsa. Levyn tuottaja Markus Vainiomäki on tehnyt hienon juoksun – kiitos Markus! Ja kiitos kaikille jotka ovat osana yhteistä projektia!

Sunnuntaina 29.4 on keikka tämän uuden levyn tiimoilta Vantaalla, Korson helluntaiseurakunnassa http://www.korsonhelluntaisrk.fi/  klo 16. Mukana Kimmo Suomela ja Wilma Witick. Sunday 29th April Nina’s concert (AVOIN TAIVAS Hilja Aaltonen-album) in Vantaa/Korso at 4 PM.

Working on a new album in Finnish – Hilja Aaltosen teksteihin on Hannu Huhtala (ja Nina yhden laulun verran:) säveltänyt laulut jotka Nina yhdessä tuottaja Markus Vainiomäen kanssa on työstämässä levyksi, jonka suunniteltu julkaisuajankohta on huhtikuu. Levyn julkaisee Aikamedia. Erittäin jännittävä projekti joka kokonaisuudessaan on vaikuttanut minuun suuresti, sanoo Nina.
