Nithish music is based on folk songs called ''stērvėnje'' (literally "old song"). A famous stērvėnje is "Sevruwėju đrz percēma" (The evening wind through birch trees), which has been set to music several times by Nithish composers. During the Nōje Niđjaste ("New Nithishness") artistic renaissance there was a revival of Nithish folk elements in the arts and music.
A popular Nithish folk instrument is the ''kautil'', a 5 string harp resembling the Finnish kantele but with movable bridges. Songs are mostly pentatonic with minor pitch variations on each note and these are played on the kautil by pressing the strings on the other side of the bridge. It's mentioned in the Nithish epic ''Kalewasluxu''.
Vocal and choral music is extremely popular in Nithland, so much so that Nithland is often called "vėnjecema" (the land of song). Choral composition is a very rich tradition and many public figures in Nithland are also choral composers and songwriters, an example being the current prime minister of Nithland, Wėnima Vrijaszūnu.
