  • 3 beautiful, separate performances by Sibelius Academy musicians on a harmonium (harmooni), peasant's kantele (talonpoikaiskantele), and a pair of mandolins, respectively.

    I'm Brazilian, and raised in a favela in Rio de Janeiro city. How I'd like to say to those musicians that their music had crossed the Atlantic and found my heart!!! I just love Finnish folk music.

    Kantele is the perfect instrument for Finns. You hear the wind breezing in the forests when you listen to it; it's delicate and soft but also powerful when needed. I know Tolkien thought of Finns as kind of forest elves, and somehow I now see it with the kantele.

    This is why I love youtube youd never see such wonderful instruments or hear such evocative music on mainstream TV that lot are too busy telling us how to live and totally depressing the life out of everyone. Mainstream TV should carry a health warning. Give me this sort of educational entertainment any day of the week. Truly uplifting.

      This seemed to be of younger instruments (like from the 18th century onwards). While kantele itself is ancient, of course, in this video the more modern form was presented. Jouhikko would be very medieval, which seemed to be beyond the scope of the video.

    Just happened, I found an incredibly beautiful performance of gusli. When was typed "slavic music" in the search I was shown an unique performance on slavic gusli (helmet-sharped psaltery) by one guslar Kirill Bogomilov. I was incredibly inspired by it's performance and I learned at his youtube that it turns out there is an gusli ancient slavic tradition but gusli was banned in Russia for more than 200 years and was burned at the stake in the middle ages as a magical devilish instrument! Unbelievably!!!
    I've never heard anything about it before, and now I've found your channel with music on this amazing instrument. Thank you so much for this perfomance!
