- Rož and Podjuna and Zila are three Slovenian valleys in northern Carinthia (now part of Austria). They symbolize Slovenian national identity and pride of our fellow countrymen in Carinthia. It honors those who despite tremendous German pressures to assimilate managed to survive for more than one hundred years on land that Slovenia lost after World War One. The song reminds us that the land of Carinthia is ours, Slovenian. That our people, who endured all the great hardships of both world wars, are still a part of the Slovenian motherland, a part of our memory and a part of the proud melancholic Slovenian soul.
(Primož Zevnik, concert director)
The song of three valleys where Slovenian people live in Austrian Carinthia was written by priest Ph.D. Janko Mikula, together with farmer Janko Olip. The song was tuned by Pavle Kernjak.
This amazing symphonic musical arrangement was made by composer Marjan Peternel
Sopran: Ernestina Jošt
Gimnazija Kranj Symphony Orchestra
conductor: Maestro Nejc Bečan
Gimnazija Kranj United Choirs
chorus master: Erik Šmid
balance engineer: Aleks Pirkmajer
balance engineer assistant: Antonina Wyszyńska
mastering: Iztok Zupan
Janko Mikula was a prominent national and cultural worker in Carinthia in the 1930s and 1940s. After finishing humanistic high school in Klagenfurt, he studied scholastic philosophy at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome and afterward theology in Klagenfurt. It is believed that he cooperated with Carinthian cultural organizations already as a student. After being ordinated a priest in 1932, he worked in several Carinthian towns. During the war, he helped expatriates and was put in jail for a few months by Germans due to collaboration with partisans. In 1952 he decided to move abroad; he learned English and moved to Australia. He had no contact with his homeland for about a decade, however, later on, he became a regular visitor.
The legacy of Janko Mikula has not been gathered and reviewed completely. It contains memorial and preaching notes, random thoughts and even an experimental dramatic text. However, he became a part of the Slovenian collective memory mainly as the author of the poem Rož, Podjuna, Zila, which is deemed a national poem for many people. The song for this poem was written by a Carinthian self-taught composer Pavle Kernjak. As a composer arising from the Carinthian folk tradition, he became the central figure in music among Carinthian Slovenians. After WW2 he became known also among Slovenians in other regions, particularly due to performances of the Slovenian octet.
The song Rož, Podjuna, Zila is dedicated to the priest Vinko Poljanec and was supposed to be written at the time of his death. Poljanec was a vivid promoter of national consciousness, who persistently continued his political and cultural work even after the Carinthian plebiscite failed. Consequently, despite striving for the coexistence of both nations, he became a target of German nationalists, particular following the annexation of Austria into Germany. In 1938 he was imprisoned and when released from prison, where mercury was allegedly added to his food, he was exhausted and died shortly after. Therefore, he is deemed as the first victim of Nazism among Carinthian Slovenian priests.

I'm learning Slovenian now, after meeting my cousins in Slovenia.
Rad se spominjam svojega obiska v Sloveniji. To je lepa dežela.
A song in a beautiful performance. Tears on the cheeks, But not for grief. SLAVA to his home country of SLOVENIA
Sound so beautiful............................................from Hong Kong.
Mankind is capable of creating such incredible beauty. It must never be destroyed,
Voice from heaven , top class singing ! Bravissimo !
IN memory of my beloved Slovenian friend Jasna Strukelj ; may she rest in peace !
The purest voice I've ever heard and such a beautiful song - enough to make the Angel's weep.
"Homeland of mine" is the key word of solidarity. Let's pray for those people suffering now.
🥺😫😫😫😭🤗🤗🤗🤗😘😘😘
I am not an emotional person. I look down on people who cry for superfluous reasons like a movie or a sports team losing. With that said and done I can’t listen to Ernestina Jost without crying. Ernestina Jost is proof of a loving God. Perhaps she is an Angel sent to us from Heaven as God’s final gift to mankind before the apocalypse
Your post is a good proof that when people are dovoted and belive in what they are doing whit pure heart and love of doing it reaches out to many people and cultures and as a proud Slovene I am happy to see that even such a smoll nation has to offer a lot to ohers. Greetings an God bless you from Slovenia.
Thank you so much for your kind words. Count this American as a friend
@@gregoryglading1517 There is never enough friends in this crazy world so gladly. At the end it doesent matter nationality colour of skin what matters is pure soul and good heart
and open mind. I just wish more people were like that.
You are not alone, Gregory. I have been following Ernestina's career from the time she was about sixteen and brought to the front of the stage as a soloist by my friend Primož Zevnik in his Gimnazija Kranj High School/Youth Symphony Orchestra and Mixed Choirs, where she performed here on the orchestra's final, and bittersweet, concert, "Zadnje potovanje domov" ("Last Journey Home"), their Christmas concert of 2018. And her beautiful singing voice, to this day, often brings tears to my eyes. 💖
Have you been following her career since she graduated (Summa cum laude) with her Masters Degree in lyric singing from the Ljubljana University Academy of Music? She is having Quite the career. 😀
And do you know the story of these three beautiful valleys, the Rož, Podjuna, and Zila, in what is now known as Carinthia in Austria, which were once part of Slovenia and still have many thousands of citizens there who speak Slovene as their native language?
May I respectfully suggest you don't look down on people who can't fully control their emotions and cry. You don't know their background and the reasons for their sensitivity. Maybe.turn to God and ask Him why? God bless you.
Je suis sans voix face à une telle merveille. Merci CZcams de développer nos passions et émotions et surtout évoluer dans notre culture❤️❤️❤️🙏👏

Oh moj Bog,kako ganjiva pesem
Poslušam z zaprtimi očmi. Ta pesem in še v tej čudoviti izvedbi me globoko gane! Izvedba ter sporočilo te pesmi je nekaj, kar pri meni zbudi spoštovanje zmeraj, ko jo slišim.
Spoštljiv poklon vsem in hvala!.
Dragi Franc. Blagoslovljen božič in vse dobro.
Pozdravljen Franc, Slovenija ima tako čudovite pesmi, imaš čudovite interprete in zelo zelo rada poslušam glasbo tvoje domovine. Mene pa se je res dotaknila ta pesem, ki jo je s svojim čudovitim glasom zapela prikupna Ernestina Jošt. Lahko se vživim v vsako besedo, pa tudi v občutke, ki jih verjetno vzbudi pri marsikaterem tvojem rojaku. Škoda, ker še nisem našel besedila pesmi. (Upam, da nisem napisal preveč napak.)
Koroška naša, slovenska.
Beautiful voice, beautiful song...
I have recently been in hospital with cardiac problems for 4 weeks and your music has kept me going. Thank you very much xx
I hope you are better dear friend, regards from Melbourne:-))))
Zelo pogosto poslušam to lepo in žalostno pesem. Vsakič me zelo gane besedilo, glasba, zbor in predvsem nastop s čudovitim glasom Ernestine Jošt.
Morda se boste temu smejali, vendar se pogosto zalotim, da ploskam, tako kot občinstvo, s ploskanjem.
(Upam, da sem jasno napisal.)
Lepo in jasno napisano
@@boyan64 Hvala za kompliment. Ampak bom iskren: potreboval sem pomoč.
Beautiful beyond description.
To pierwszy poznany tą drogą utwór muzyczny rodem ze Słowenii. Podoba mi się.
QUE BELLEZA DE VOZ, Y LA MUJER QUE CANTA, PARECE UNA MUÑECA....MUY BONITA
Děkuji ❤️👍 jsem Slovan bratři 😁
Indians under the subjugation of the
British Power had to struggle for their homeland which is the best
hearth on this mother earth..
Bellisima gracias

Beautiful,, just beautiful!
Listen to the silence of greatness in the end. You left people speachless Ernestina!
Sehr schön musiziert 👋👍👌🙏
No frontieres .I feel this.Thank you so much for this beautiful song.!
¡Canción del Alma!
Ernestine, Sissel, and Mirusia are three of the best modern day vocalists!
music is a world language no frontiers or barriers feelings that say everything
Can’t agree more,I am from Serbia, but when I start to like the music based on nationality, I will know that I fell as human being…..
More good music ,less politics….
So happy for Slovenia
Incredible performance, it touchs my heart
Simply beautiful! Asking GOD’S blessing and guidance for our two peoples!
Angelski glas, res bravo!! In ena res velika pohvala orkestru Gimnazije Kranj, sopranistki Ernestini Jošt in vsem ki so sodelovali! BRAVO!

i'm not slovenian but i just love this song so much.. it makes me feel like i don't know how to explain it
Slovenija❤❤❤❤
Echo przekazuje ta pieśń od góry do góry w całej Słowenii
Emotivna pesem, ki se dotakne duše, jo očisti s solzami in povzdigne nad zemeljsko minljivost v prostor, ki je večen in združevalen.
O tem pričajo komentarji poslušalcev z različnih koncev sveta. Čeprav ne razumejo slovenskega jezika, je sama pesem, njen aranžma
in popolna interpretacija pevke v zlitju z orkestrom zvenela v angelskem jeziku, ki ga razumejo vsi ljudje z dušo.
Dragi Zdravko. Hvala za lep komentar. Sicer lahko vklopite podnapise, kjer je naš prevajalec Tog Hoath prevedel besedilo v vse velike svetovne jezike.
Браво,Брависсимо! Господи,помилуй нас и прости!
Magnifique interprétation

So many beautiful talented young people? Slovenia rocks!!! I became yours biggest fan. NAZDAR!!!

After listing to this over a dozen times I too am weeping uncontrollably - an American.
On ne peut rester insensible à une si belle chanson, une si belle voie, et l'orchestre et la chorale. Il me semble voir les trois vallées,
You've touched my heart ... beautiful Slovenia !
With this beautiful song I feel the pain also in my heart. I was born and lived 35 years in East Germany. This was my HOMELAND I lost.
Now my life is very good thanks to my own work and efforts. But my life at that time was better thanks to the people, the solidarity...! I miss it.
Listen also her song...
