[@louise_rose]

Yes, and with truly universal appeal - the meaning and beauty of this music is as easy to grasp in South America as in the Nordic countries or eastern Europe. I'm from Sweden myself, Finland is our closest neighbour and Sibelius is definitely one of the greatest composers ever to come from this part of the world.

I grew up amid the lakes and forests of Northern Ontario, in Canada. The landscape there is identical to that of Finland. Many Finnish immigrants settled there, mixing with the aboriginal Cree and Ojibway people. I remember a Cree elder who told me that he couldn't believe that the Finns were Europeans. "They're exactly like us," he said. "They have the sweat hut (= sauna), when they speak it sounds something like our language, they know how to live in the forest, how to hunt, how to walk in the snow, how to tell stories around the campfire in the proper way. They belong here, like we do. It's strange that they look so pale, though." I'm not a Finn, but when I hear Sibelius, he speaks to me like a brother.

I gotta visit Northern Ontario. Greetings from Finland!

[@thompsonmackenzie8957]

@@rookield8077 The landscape of Northern Ontario is precambrian shield rock covered in forest (deciduous grading into coniferous as a you go northward), with thousands of lakes. Small patches of farms scattered in the southern parts, but 95% of the land is forested. This would be very familiar to you, I'm sure. Finns arrived in the late 19th century and were welcomed because they were skilled lumberjacks and they could compete successfully in fistfights with the French Canadian, Ojibway and Irish lumberjacks. After the fistfights were done with, they all intermarried. Just looking at the map of Northern Ontario, I can find Suomi (town), Suomi Lake, Finland (township), Finland's Bay, Finland Creek, Kittila Maki (neighbourhood in Thunder Bay), Rauhala (another neighbourhood in Thunder Bay), Kivikoski (town), Lappe (originally Lappi, but mispelled by the Post Office), Sistonens Corners, Kormak, Makynen (village), Intola Cemetery, Pohjola Cemetery & Tarmola Cemetery (inhabited by dead Finns, I guess), Ella Lake, Emma Lake, Jantti Lake, Karstula Lake, Kusti lake, Lohi Lake, Matti Lake, Pelo Lake, Pistin Lake, Tenho Lake, four different Maki Lakes and three different Maki Rivers. Sometimes it's hard to tell if a name is Finnish or native Cree or Ojibway, because the languages look similar, but those are the ones I'm fairly sure of.

[@rookield8077]

@@thompsonmackenzie8957 Many people seem to have named the lakes by their names. All the lakes you said were Finnish names. Also it's funny how "mäki" or as you would call it, maki, used to be the most popular last name in 1800s-1900s. That's why there are so many of them I guess.

[@jiivee63]

Because I'm a finn, I can never listen to this without tears coming into my eyes. The music tells the incredible story of Finland. The hard struggles, the fights, how the tough people of Finland went from being a poor country to rich one through hard work etc of every finn, then becoming a free and modern society. It is difficult to tell with words. One needs to be a finn to really get the depth of this masterpiece. This piece represents Finland from the first notes to the last ones. I love my dearest Finland with all my heart and mind and will without a doubt always protect my country against any possible aggressor. It would be my honor to die for my country.

I'm a grown man sitting here on the 6th of December crying more than a few tears listening to this. It's hard to explain. If you're not Finnish, you may think this is a great piece (or not) but for so many of us this might just be the most beatiful piece of music ever written. Not only because of the music itself, but for what it represents to us. Depicting the struggles our people had to experience in the past in order to grow into the blossoming society it is today. Everything about it makes me feel so grateful to have been born and lived in this country. A truly inspiring masterpiece and the only music that has ever had me in tears. Happy independence day everyone.

The piece can ,if we leave out anything "political" about it and just think about the natural romanticism, be seen as the "unofficial anthem of the historical finno-estonian cultural region". :) Which meant : Finland+ Estonia+ Livonia (including a part of today's Latvia) + small parts of northern Sweden + small parts of northern Norway (counties FINNmark with much partial finnish-lappish ancestry and a big finnish migration in the 1800s, and under doubt also Troms- where many of the kveenit / kainulaiset /kvæner and the tshud people migrated into from the late medievals and onwards until the 1700s)

A large group of Russian soldiers in the border area in 1939 are moving down a road when they hear a voice call from behind a small hill: "One Finnish soldier is better than ten Russian". The Russian commander quickly orders 10 of his best men over the hill where Upon a gun-battle breaks out and continues for a few minutes, then silence. The voice once again calls out: "One Finn is better than one hundred Russian." Furious, the Russian commander sends his next best 100 troops over the hill and instantly a huge gun fight commences. After 10 minutes of battle, again Silence. The calm Finnish voice calls out again: "One Finn is better than one thousand Russians" The enraged Russian commander musters 1000 fighters and sends them to the other side of the hill. Rifle fire, machine guns, grenades, rockets and cannon fire ring out as a terrible battle is fought.... Then Silence. Eventually one badly wounded Russian fighter crawls back over the hill and with his dying words tells his commander, "Don't send any more men......it's a trap. There's two of them."

Przez zachwyt Sibeliusem i poematem Kalevala pojechałam na wycieczkę do Finlandii. Piękny kraj i Sibelius muzyką doskonale oddał charakter i piękno. I tak dzięki Sztuce człowiek poznaje i się rozwija. Cudowny dar

[@jyrkilahtonen791]

Olen periaatteessa samaa mieltä. Mutta tässä on myös se pointti, että Maamme-laulu sopii Finlandia-hymniä paremmin nousuhumalaisten jääkiekkofanien sekameteliköörille. :-)

[@itsgoodiewoodie]

@@jyrkilahtonen791 Miksi lätkäfanit pitää ottaa tähän negatiivisella otteella mukaan. Itse ja moni muukin "lätkäfani" on ajanut Finlandiaa maamme-laulun tilalle. KansallislLAULUssa tosin tulee olla sanat, ja nekin tähän on.

[@jyrkilahtonen791]

@@itsgoodiewoodie Ehkä mä vaan halusin tuoda esille kansallislaulun erilaisia käyttötilanteita. Olenhan itsekin sen verran lätkäfani että tippa linssissä kelaan kerran kuukaudessa YT:stä Suomen MM-voittokoosteet Mertsin selostamina. Sibban kipale kumminkin tuntuu jopa liian arvokkaalta ja dynamiikaltaan vaihtelevalta joihinkin käyttötarkoituksiin Paciuksen tasavolyymiseen renkutukseen verrattuna. Sanoitettu osa Finlandia-hymnistä on paljon lyhyempi kuin tuo täysi 9 minuuttia. Summarum: kunhan lämpimikseni jorisin. Peace. Kyllä Finlandia-hymnistäkin hyvä kansallislaulu tulisi (eikä sitä silloin kuunnella hiljaa koko ajan)
