Dieses grossartige Lied wo vom Freiheitskampf der Finnen gegen die Sowietunion handelt, hat wieder eine besondere Bedeutung. Vom tapferen Freiheitskampf der Ukrainer gegen über dem Schwerstverbrecher Putin (Russland). Hansjörg Hengarter/Scweiz!
I fully understand that sentiment! However, it would be a little too fine-tuned to play whenever Finland beats us (=Sweden) in ice hockey! Det vackraste som någonsin skrivits av en nordisk kompositör! Jag har förstått texten från en engelsk översättning. Underbart vacker!
Tämä on mahtava versio tästä teoksesta. En ole koskaan ennen kuullut tuota käyrätorven suureen ääneen soitettavaa sävelkulkua a-gis-fis. En tiennyt että käyrätorvella on sellainen kohta. Nyt rakastan tätä teosta vielä enemmän.
Such a beautiful church. I was luck enough to be physically and mentally experience not a big choir like this but a piano session. Wow is the word. Thanks and let there be love and light. God bless. An indian from germany who visited finland. The world is small.
Over the years, more than 30 years, i was thinking that this was the hymn of Finland. I learned later then that is was not. But this one i can not forget. It is sitting in my head as beautful this is from Sibelius.
Finnish Composer Jean Sibelius composed Finlandia to Finnish People to give them Gourage to stand against Russias many attempts to take over Finland and destroy its culture and its very rich Language! Finlandia is written in the DNA of every Finnish person! Finlandia has also been suggested by many non-Finnish people as the common anthem of the Whole World!
Today, May 8, 2022 a young female minister of Finland visited Japan in the Far East for the first time We are deeply grateful, delighted, and moving. Many Japanese deeply love and respect Sibelius and Finland people May Finland be glorious, prosperous, and peaceful From Tokyo where spring is in full bloom
I cannot believe i've never seen this video before. By far the best cadence and mood in this out of all the performances. People should also listen to Sibelius' "Tuonelan Joutsen", It truly hits my Finnish heart...
@sisu mies kun nyt ensin opettelet yhdyssanat ja sen jälkeen toisten, mm. ulkomaalaisten kunnioittamisen, oot jo pitkällä. Eiköhän meilläkin ole kappaleita, joilla on jokaisella vähän eri nimi. Viralliset nimet on kyllä, mutta epävirallisia lienee kyllä. Tanskan kielinen sana strejne.
Only thing i didn't like was when they sang "kun sä näytit maailmalle että karkoitit orjuuden - when you showed to The world that you chased away The slavery", they go down almost to a whisper, i think that Part should Be sang as loud as possible, as a defience against russian oppression Finland suffered in The 19th century. Otherwise, lovely!
1979, I heard a musical group from Belfast deliver this, "a capella", completely impromptu, during the after-show bash following a performance of a musical group in Shannon, Ireland. I so wish I could remember more of the detail but the delivery of the piece itself remains imprinted on my memory to this day....
My hope is for Russia and Finland to work, as far as permissible by moral and legal restrictions are working to the contrary, to continue strong bonds of trade, commercial exchange, and some friendship, even during these turbulent times.
