Kari Tauring
Kari Tauring is a culture bearer of Nordic heritage. Growing up in Minnesota with summers on the Wisconsin farm, nature and nature instruments are a constant in her life. An expert in Old Norse poetry and runes, a study she began in 1988, Kari weaves ancient poetic meaning into the sounds of sheep and swan bones, elder and willow trees, and a variety of horns.
