Konevitsan kirkonkellot

"Konevitsan kirkonkellot" (English: "The Church Bells of Konevitsa") is a Karelian folk melody, best known as the 1975 recording of Finnish musical group Piirpauke.

It repeats the chime of the church bells of the Konevsky Monastery (Konevitsan luostari in Finnish) in Lake Ladoga.

The melody was first recorded by kantele player Ulla Katajavuori in 1952.

The improvised part is known of the classic guitar solo by Hasse Walli.

[3] French horn was played by 17-year-old music student Esa-Pekka Salonen, who later became a famous conductor.
