Olga Shishkina ({{lang-ru|Ольга Шишкина}}; born May 23, 1985, Leningrad) is a Russian born gusli and kantele artist currently residing in Helsinki, Finland. She is known for her virtuosity and innovativity that is reflected in developing new techniques and expanding the repertoire of the instrument.[1]

Education

Shishkina started to play gusli at the age of 8. In 1993-2001 she attended Andreev music school where she studied gusli, piano, balalaika and classical guitar. At the age of 16 she got the 2nd prize at 6th All-Russian Competition (2001, Tver) where she became the youngest prize winner in the competition’s history. Since then Shishkina has been performing at numerous festivals in Scandinavia, UK, Japan, USA, Switzerland and other countries. In 2003 she was accepted to St.Petersburg Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatory on exceptional basis without compulsory studies at music college. She majored in gusli, but at the same time also studied piano, organ and orchestral conducting. After graduating with the highest honours from the Conservatoire she continued her education at Sibelius Academy where she studied Finnish kantele, classical and jazz piano. Shishkina became the first foreigner to have graduated as a Master of Music in Finnish concert kantele in 2012.

Since 2014 she has been holding a position of a Board member of Kanteleliitto, Finnish kantele association. Shishkina has been a jury member at such competitions as International Kantele competition (Petrozavodsk, 2014) and International Kantele competition (Helsinki, 2015). Since 2015 a member of Finnish composers' copyright society "Teosto".

Collaborations

Throughout her career Shishkina has been involved in different music genres. Since 2004 she has been playing in a duo with a Russian flutist Alexander Kiskachi where her instrument is a chromatic gusli. Other collaborations include work with such Finnish musicians as Timo Kämäräinen, Mika Mylläri, Terttu Iso-Oja and Saara Aalto and Estonian jazz guitarist Ain Agan. In 2013 she was invited as a special guest to perform at Jazz Harp Festival (Leiden, Netherlands) where she appeared together with a Grammy-nominated jazz harpist Deborah Henson-Conant. In January 2014 Shishkina was involved as both a musician and a composer in a theatre play "Finnphonia Emigrantica" produced by European Theatre Collective. The play got positive reviews in Finnish major newspapers.
