Jonna Jinton - Swedish Kulning Reaction | Is This Singing In Sweden... Or Cattle Calling?! 

Omg you guys are just the best! ❤️ To see your lovely reactions made my day 😘😂 Thank you so much once again for reaction to my videos! Lots of love ❤️

Jonna Jinton has the most beautiful channel on RU-vid! She invites us to the magic world of the old traditions and the wonderful nature of northern Sweden. It's so beautiful and relaxing! Jonna is a true artist in every sense! ❤

I wish Jonna Jinton could represent Sweden in Eurovision Song Contest.

Jonna said that the cattle herding video was shot on a whim, that she has no relation to the cows, yet they still came to the ancient call! She's even had kulning results from cats and even swans! These three vastly different species come to the call out of curiosity, almost like they're under a trance, you can see them tilting their heads and focusing on Jonna as she sings. I think this is proof that humans can be magical

We love @jonnajinton, she makes us proud of our folklore and traditions. Thanks for the love and respect for our culture ..! Very good video guys..! :)

Kulning is a Swedish style of singing/cattle calling dating back to the Viking era. The wonderful thing about kulning is that it can be heard for miles.

We still use kulning. There is even music classes at the universities where you can learn kulning from the pro’s. ☺️

"that far north" yeah haha, land of the vikings and we are a part of the artic circle so yea, we are pretty far up north

Jonna is my favorite youtuber. She has so many amazing videos.😍

I love her channel and have followed her for several years. A beautiful soul with a beautiful voice!

She is like the ENYA of sweden.what she does with her music is magical.

jonna jinton is the modern viking, she have make me wanna leave my life in stockholm and move north

Jonna Jinton. Artist. Priestess? Goddess? Thank you, Jonna, for breaking open the heart of ancient Scandinavica...my ancient ancestresses are so happy!

Jonna Jilton is Soooo Real, & So fantastic! An Earth Angel for certain, with her Angelic Voice & her Beautiful Husband & dog always by her side!

In Dalarna Sweden they had the cows out to graze and it was often young women that workt as shepards at the "fäbods" they called the cows with song... (the females from that region is even called "dalkullor")

You guys need to see her calling for a swan, and playing the violin

If you want more swedish culture, listen to Jon Henrik Fjällgren, he sings in a way that is called ”joiking”. Jon Henrik is a raindeer herder(also called a sami)and joiking is a part of the sami culture. You could listen to his song ”daniel’s joik” when he sings it on Sweden’s got talent, turn the subtitles on so you can understand the story behind the song: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-woEcdqqbEVg.html

The most intriguing part of "kulning" is not that it is hauntingly beautiful, but due to the frequency used, it can travel a VERY long distance. Cows are naturally curious so she could make many other noises too and they would react the same way, but it creates a bit of magic over it all in this video. Love your reactions!

Found your video by pure chance. Never heard of you before. You guys are cool, and fun to watch. I subscribed. 🙏

I went to New Zealand last year, all the way down to invercargill. Across the road from my daughters house there is a deer farm. I played this very video of Jonna’s on a speaker loud to the deer, and I kid you not the deer came to the fence! I was amazed and in love! 💕

I’m a big Jonna fan, loved this!

She is so "AMAZING" LOVE her

You should react to 'Jon Henrik - Daniels Jojk' from Sweden got talent, amazing video and you will love it.

I love Jonna she's such a beautiful soul 💗

I love her channel. I saw that Amazon is even selling Kulning tee shirts- it must be more popular than I thought.

Cows are just as social as us humans.. If you speak/sing to them and make them special - a special connection, they will come to you without any hesitation.

Found Jonna's channel a week ago and honestly she is absolutely amazing. You should see her vid on balancing stones. Incredible!!!!!

Of course the cows are coming. I would if Jonna called! Jokes aside the cows are tame. They comes to people for company or protection and in the afternoon when they hear the call they know it's time to head home!

Cows like music :) my grandparents have the radio on in the barn for them. And my grandmother does the calling but quite different then Jonnas :) it's fun to see your reaction to traditional swedish singing traditions!

You guys are so cute!! Love and respect from Sweden! :)

🤣 you can be as far down in the south in Sweden as much as you want, during the winter it's cold there too! 🤣 ;) Loooove Jonna! 😍

Cattle are very curious animals.. my neighbor used to have about 40 head of cattle. I'd sit on the edge and my play acoustic guitar. Every cow in that field came up to investigate the beautiful music.

You guys should go to her homepage that she sells her paintings on. She is a complete artist. Also her and her husband also make jewelry that you should look at. The two of them have such a perfect life together.

I watch Jonna's videos on my telly sometimes, just because I want more of them.

You should check out the Ice Hotel in Sweden. That's pretty cool. I've never been there myself, but I'd love to go one day. Also, I love Jonna's singing and videos. So amazing.

I’m born 200km north of the Arctic circle in Sweden and can confirm that Sweden is so far north

Cows love music. Play music for cows and they are happy

~This was Cool!! Thx for Sharing!! ~💛

Cows are actually incredibly receptive to music. If someone goes into a cow pasture and plays some music, whether it be an instrument or their voice, the cows WILL gather to listen.

Farmers way back needed to be able to get hay during the summer so it was enough for managing the winter so the cows couldnt go in those fields and eat. It was very common to have a second small group of buildings up at a forrest and some of the people from the farm and all animals went to there in the early summer and stayed there all summer. The cows were lose in the forrests eating and when it was time for milking they called the cows through kulning. So kulning is the sound cows learned meant that they needed to go back to the houses to get milked.

Jonna is a fairy lady I love her a lot specially wolves song

Her Lucia video makes me cry everytime! It’s beautiful ❤️

It is the pure frequency of nature that the animals still understand but we have forgotten

Cows are actually quite curious. That's likely why they are coming in this case ( I don't think those are her cows). It's of course no problem to condition the animals to respond. Often a mix of flower, grain and salt was used as highly effective treats. Being social animals they are often willing to respond to people they know, regardless. Since it often was used to call animals from many miles away, each caller/singer would have their own style in order to attract the correct animals. The style of singing imitates and is probably inspired by "lurs" (birch-trumpets). The lur was not only for music, but was used to communicate between people over long distances. The style used in cowcalling, and also sheep and goatcalling (with more or less subtle differences) , are likely all derivates of "kauking" (calling between people). This is especially useful and common in the mountains and high plateaus. So yes, dear swedes, this is a norwegian invention 🤣

You guys are so funny 😂😂😂

Jonna is magical and Kulning attracts more animals than cows. There is a video on youtube where a Swedish woman calls on a swan and a baby swan when she is Kulning. Listen to "Herr mannelig with Garmarna" it is a very "haunting" song to! The text is believed to have originated from the Viking Age but changed some over the years since scandinavia become Christian.

Far north? Yes it is. Stockholm has the same latitude as southern Alaska. Jonna Jinton lives at 63 latitude. Kiruna in Sweden is at latitude 67.855800. The latitude of Anchorage, AK, USA is 61.217381

Regarding the cows: they are can be inquisitive, and can come to you just because you are new to them, you don't have to call for them. I have been hiking past a cow pasture, and had the entire herd almost stampeding towards me just because I was something new and exciting. They stopped just short of the flimsy fence separating us, and the cows and I spent some time looking at each other, before i continued on my way. Had they wanted to get through the fence they could have done so with no difficulty at all, it was mostly a thin wire (not even electrified!). Regarding the "kulning": the sounds have probably evolved over time, to carry far in nature without having to put out a high volume. Since, in historic times, there were few fences to keep the cattle from wandering, you might have to try rounding up your herd (before winter, os you can keep them in a barn) over a very large area, and you would thus want to expend as little energy as possible making noises to gather the herd. I don't think the sound itself has any meaning to the cattle, it's just something they have learnt: this particular kind of noise (which does not occur naturally) means there is a human that wants us to go to him/her. And regarding the "far north": JJ does not live all that far north. I think Chesterfield Inlet in Canada's Hudson Bay (look it up on eg Google Maps) is quite exactly as far north as the place JJ lives. While this might seem far north in Canada, Sweden extends for another ~500 kilometres north of JJ, and all of this, except the last ~100 km, is inhabited. And it's not "inhabited" in the way you imagine you could see in National Geographic documentaries, with the occasional first peoples village here and there, it's inhabited in the way that you have mobile phone service almost everywhere, you can buy groceries without travelling more than an hour at most (depending on road conditions, in winter it might be longer). And even the small villages with under 100 inhabitants are starting to get broadband access now, and not over the mobile networks! In any way, it was interesting to see two foreigners reacting to something quintessentially Swedish. And if you come here, you should make two trips,one in summer and one in winter. And when you come in winter, you should not miss the ice hotel: a hotel built almost entirely (!) with ice. They do have to make some exceptions, but as far as practically possible, they will use snow and ice to build the hotel. And if you order a drink in the hotel bar, you don't have to ask to have it "on the rocks" because the glasses are usually made of ice...

I actually do this to the cows at my work place and I can confirm it does work. I'm very scared of cows though so I'll give the experience a 7/10

Its no brainsurgery...You can play what ever instrument...And the cows are coming, to get milked. And cows are so curious ...They cant resist...:) Its fantastic they made something beautiful out of the work. And Jonna is fantastic taking this beautiful music to her level.

Jonna has the best channel ever. She is the most amazing beautiful talented women.

I actually saw my grandmother do this for real when I was a whee kid in the Swedish north. It was amazing hearing the echo bounce back from the mountain on the other side of the lake. (this is not my grandmother) Calling a Swan ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Yy90wZbepiE.html Calling a deer ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-beedJkxmsnI.html Kulning: Ancient Swedish herding call and signaling singing. Done right it carries miles and miles over water and through valleys. Used to call home animals or to signal between two houses or villages. Also used to communicate between farms and villages whenever needed. Signal systems where made up beforehand. This special vocal technique creates overtones that deteriorate very slowly over distance and could therefore travel very far. The characteristic tonal phrasing that is used formed the ground for Swedish folk music singing where you phrase the words and only do one tonal change per word instead of tonal runs that is used in the rest of the world. That creates a simplicity that is refreshing and gives more importance to the words in a song instead of on the singer. (Listen to Chris Kläfford and noticed the one tone changes in words instead of runs) That lead to the traditional Nordic folk music. 3/3ds, Beat on 3 and 1 with 1 marked. (Hambo) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hPkxBVclmXI.html And then why Jazz became so huge in Sweden. We already did it since hundreds of years We just needed to put in in 4/4 time code. (Or in this case 6/8 time code which basically is the same thing but fits better with the 3/3 lyrics) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ga1ApVYQ3Qc.html And after some washing through modern technology these things ends up in ABBA, Roxette, Opeth and Meshuggah. When you know what to listen for it is actually quite fun to hear Nordic folk music end up in even Katy Perry, Pink and Gaga (through Max Martin and a slew of other nordic producers)

React to Jon-Henrik Fjällgren. He is sami (sub culture) in Sweden. He sings an enchanting style called ”jojk” on Swedish ”Talent/talang”. They are reindeer hearders. Sweden is a long land, but not wide. I live in North Norrland and it’s enchanting. There was mostly sami living in the north of Sweden and vikings in the rest of Sweden. Northern Sweden has a mix of both cultures and most cities has sami names, like Jokkmokk and Arvidsjaur. Sami culture reminds alot of native american. Here is his audition video to Talang. It has english subtitles. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-woEcdqqbEVg.html

LOL that’s about how I felt too - although within the next week I watched about 70 jonna jinton videos after that... no exaggeration

I saw a video of a woman using kulning to draw in a wild swan!! So yeah, there is definitely something special about it!

Hello! Love you guys I hope you can react to what Sweden is famous from, or things that Sweden is very good at. Another fun thing you can do is trying to speak Swedish. I am from Sweden and i think that Sweden is a very good place to live on, so it’s fun to see you guys doing videos about out Little country.

Her voice is so beautiful

Love u jonna----elena liboon/ i always watching ur video Joanna💕💕

OMG OMG OMG you're covering Jonna!

She is the hope of my life..

You should make a reaction video about Swedish music, so much music you've probably heard and never knew were Swedish ☺️

Cows are really curious and will come when you call them :) you can also train them that a calling means food so

You guys should see her history off how she came one with nature 🍃🍃🍃

The aurora borealis can be seen throughout most of Sweden, but it is mostly only seen in the 'mid & southern' parts, when there are strong sunflares colliding with earth, usually, you have to be on the northern part of Sweden in order to see them a bit more often. Since the electro magnetic field isn't as strong in at the poles.

Cows are very curious creatures, they will come investigate unusual things. I once landed my paraglider on a cattle ranch and all the cows came up to the fence to say hello.

It's not just 4 cows it's for anything lol. People listen to it because it's relaxing .

The instrument that sounds a bit like a violin in the second video is, actually an instrument unique to Sweden. It’s called a “nyckelharpa” which can be translated into “key harp” or “keyed fiddle”. Here’s a short video of someone playing it that you should really check out! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e7sK5OiJHHQ.html

Your welcome to Sweden! ❤️😼

Dziekuję wam za to ,że zobaczyliście w niej "to" co ja w niej ujrzałam. Magic

When I was a kid living with My grand parents this was the way grandma called om the cattle in the eavning.. yes. Northern SWEDN

I'm a swede, living in Sweden yeah, and actually the kuling song works even if the animals doesn't know the person calling on them cause I were at Gotland island in Sweden visiting my mother living there and her neighbours have sheeps and there was someone there kuling on their sheeps and my mother's neighbours had no idea who that was but the sheeps came! Yeah I don't know why that song works but the animals seem to love it.

You really should come and visit sweden :)

"Kulning" in Portuguese from Brazil we have ¨Aboio 'is a kind of call for domestic animals like cows, sheeps and others usually at this time animals are given rations like corn, hay and salt, so they are used to it and listening the call they understand they will have it as a reward for obeying the call

Lol. Sweden is part of the Nordic countries and the Arctic circle goes through it, but you can see the northern lights much further down(south) in the country.

Voix magnifique et vidéos qui nous emmène dans temps de calme total.paysages sublimes.pays basque.france.🇫🇷❤️

im from sweden there this still time to time still do. its the owner and cows often trust the owner and cows often curiuse so they come to ^^ so its easy for the owner to train the cows to come. and the song make the sound of the calling more higher if the cows are far away so they can hear us calling for them ^^

You should check out Eivor and her song Trollabundin! There's a video of that with just her in front of a mic with a handdrum and it's epic!

Cows are easy to train and as stated already, they are also quite inquisitive. I grew up on a farm and think just about all beef and dairy farmers in Australia can call their herds. Beef cattle will move because they think you're going to give them hay or move them to another paddock with plenty of grass and water. Not all might come, so you have to chase some up occasionally. They sort of know you're in charge though. Dairy cattle often come of their own accord because they know it is time for milking at certain times of the day, every day of the year. They usually get to eat some grain while being milked but I think it is also habitual as well and dairy cattle are very docile. You just have to go out on a motorbike usually to make sure that there are no stragglers still out in the paddock. A lot of urban people might be a bit more familiar with ranches or similarly "stations" in Australia from TV, stories or folklore, where the landowner will own a massive tract of land and employ people to help run it but the land is not as productive in terms of rainfall, soil and climate, so the cows are left to roam and are more wild as a consequence. The meat from these properties is often of an inferior quality. I think that's generally why cowboys on horses who use lassos still exist. Strangely enough, in these parts of Australia people listen to and make American style country music but it doesn't really have a following in the more temperate south. I think it would be similar in the States if you were to compare rural people in the North East to say people from parts of Texas or Arizona. I digress, but in short, yes it is often quite easy to call domesticated cows. I confess though that I still much prefer listening to her singing than a big bloke just shouting at his herd.

The ancient northmen believed the Aurora Borealis to be the Bifrost. The Rainbow Bridge between the realms that the gods walk upon. And thank you for this! I did not know this wonderful singer did other music. I had only seen the herd calling video. So thank you!

Thanks for sharing great video and i´m new to your channel and i have also hit the red button for you.

Have you guys been looking closely at the ice hotel in the north part of Sweden?

it gave me goosebumps

Please do react on Jon Henrik and his jojk, beautiful voice and the sami culture is amazing.

Kulning?? I am 38 years young!! And never hoerd of kulning. It sounds like something from Ronja Rövardotter?! Pls reply!

It's how we call after herdanimals. Haha so funny seeing other cultures perspective on your own :)

Joiking is a way of singing that the "sami people" does a lot. Sweden has a star named Jon Henrik Fjällgren that has combined it with modern music.

Please react to Herr mannelig. It's sung in old swedish and sound really good.

The keyharp is pretty amazing in This

Kulning also useful for summoning rambunctious children home for dinnertime! 🙃

They don't "know" to come. They are curious animals. Something odd happens and they want to check it out. I have cattle. I use a completely different call and they still come. Now, mine are conditioned to come when I call. They know it's time for new pasture. Maybe that's cheating... I don't know. But it works. 😅

where have u gone?? i miss u !!

Haha. You are so nice,

Jonna lives in a northern Sweden town of TEN people.

they stop because there is a single wire electric fence between her and the cattle.--the cows learn. A yodeling like sound is the cattle call world wide. (Farm boy from Nebraska knows.

Cows are social animals. They come to the fence (that's why they also stopped) if you talk to them. They're curious. The herding call is of course a very good skill though because it can be heard for miles and the cattle roamed freely on large distances in the old Sweden and they learnt their callers specific call.

cows are INCREDIBLY curious animals. the kulning is simply a sound that spikes their interest. It's as intriguing for them as it is for you, if not more. The way you train your cows to go to you and no one else is basically a conditioning.
