Sibelius is a great composer. I'm not Finnish but I just love his music. I've told my children I'd like this piece played at my funeral a great way to bow out with fabulous music ringing in their ears.
Hyvä ystäväni, älä puhu kuolemasta, tänä sota-aikana, asun tässä Helsingi, pääkaupungimme lähellä, ja Sibeliuksen koti on todella lähellä kodistani 2 kilometriä, Järvenpää on kaupungin nimi, 40 kilometriä pääkaupungista, siis, jos tulet joskus Suomeen voin opastaa.
This was the theme tune for UK politics show in the 1970s called This Week, Whenever I hear this it takes me back to my childhood. Even as a child I knew this was a Classic and it turned my head everytime.
@abcde 12345 Sibelius oli hyvin isänmaallinen ja kansallismielinen mies, sitä ei ole kukaan piilotellut, siitä ei vain nykyään puhuta. Olen täysin varman että kansallinen henki on mahdollistanut osaltaan Sibeliuksen tuotannon ja hän olisi halunnut juuri sitä, että synkimpinä aikoina suomalaiset saavat voimaa tästä musiikista.
@Asmirasta hyvä että rokkia tai metallia etteivät mitään räpin-paskaa kuuntele. Metallissa sentään monesti sanoitusten aiheet ja teemat ovat vähän ylevämpiä.
Sibelius had a real "feel" for the lands of the north, especially geologically ancient shield areas of which Finland is one of, the Precambrian Finnoscandanavian Shield. Here in North America we have similar ancient, glaciated landscapes of the vast Canadian Shield of Canada and the northern parts of the states of Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan. I current live near the edge of the Ozark Uplift in Missouri and parts of the Ozarks are also areas of ancient Precambrian rocks which can also invoke Sibelius music.
Thank you Sir, as a Finnish rock climber this is also my understanding... always a priviledge to get a scientific view on what I can only understand through my fingers.

For all of we oldies and creaky ones, this is a great piece of music to get through a few stretchy and bendy exercises. A slow build up, gradually rising to a little more strenuous part on the middle, then a pleasant welcome slow down to the end. Best done next to an easy chair to collapse into at the end if necessary. Much better than some of the modern exercise music suited to the young of today. Go on, try it, do try this at home, less than 5 minutes, but don't blame me for any possible unfortunate mishaps

Simply majestic! Very beautiful video with imposing castles! Fantastic! The musical composition is a musical genius. Execution of rare beauty, full of life and excitement. Bravos! Congratulations to you legrandchene! My admiration for Finnish people.
To DrDeagle: Similar but not the same: Karelia has historically for thousands of years belonged to the Finno-Ugric and the Baltic Finnic Peoples, but stolen by the Novgorodians and later by the Slav-Russians of Moscow. Moreover, most of the contemporary Northern Russia (including the Moscow area) beloged to the Finno-Ugric peoples before the Slavic expansion between 500 and 1000 A.D and later. The Ucranians and the Slavic Russians are both Slavic peoples, though of different tribes. Thus this dispute is an "internal" dispute of the Slavic peoples (of course, notwithstanding the Crimean Tatars the Putinist Russia is mistreating as did the Stalinist USSR) while at the same time an international war of aggression. However, there are similarities because in both cases Russia is the criminal aggressor state violating the bilateral and international treaties it has signed. We the Finns have always known that you basically cannot trust the Russians, though there have been times they have been more trustworthy. But now, after the Russian aggression in Ucraine, even the most blue-eyed Finns (if not openly, at least in their hearts) must have opened their eyes and realized that the elders not trusting the Russians have been right all the way.
Political entity is a community of individual people, though not the same as an individual. Politics is a verb denoting doing, a mode of promoting particular or common interests, the end result of which can be disgusting or something better.
The language is finnougrian, but the race is a different issue and Finland was never baltic(they are Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania)Finland was over 600 yars part of Sweden and got it's nordic culture and sivilization through that.
Sometimes it's just too amazing. This music is too amazing even though there were often struggles and the composers, the public & the critics found fault with their creations it's still amazing.
Hyvä ystävä, älä puhu kuolemastasi, tässä on Venäläliset meillä naapureina, 1300 kilometria rajaa idässä, aika uhkaavaa näinä aikoina, joten soitan sinulle meifän Sibeliuksen Finlandian, se on meidän kansanllislaulu, jonka Sibelius sävelsi, kun Suomi voitti talvisodan Venäjää vastaan.
Well, Sibelius is a Finnish Icon and deserves to be so. My father who was born in 1934 in Viipuri, the capital of Karelia, died in 15th September 2012. Karelia is our land, we still legally own the house in Viipuri and our estate in the Isthmus of Carelia. This issue is still unresolved internationally. So please do not think that the issue of Carelia is something of the past and only something that belongs to the sphere of music, it is still very much alive.
My wandering soul will be healed and purified by this exquisite song in the grassland of vast content undulating in the wind . 🍎 After all Sibelius is a genius . From effulgent Tokyo in profound Japan in winter which is bone dry . A crust has formed on my lips Which national are you watching this video ？
The music of Sibelius is great and if you want to understand his music deeper you have to know the history of Finland and Fnnish people... that's true.
Of his entire Karelia music, weirdly, the Karelia Overture, as opposed to the suite, was the most popular piece a 100 years ago. Now you'd be pushed to find a recording never mind hear it in concert. Mind you the suite deserves its popularity.
Hi Karena Karena, independently were we are, the land knows those who belong to it, and those belonging to it know their land. This may sound a bit old-fashioned in the "global era", but that is the way it has been and still is.
Täällä youtube:ssa on ainakin toinenkin versio tästä teoksesta.Sitä johtaa Vladimir Ashkenazy. Mielestäni hänen johtamana tempo on lievästi puutteellinen. Toisin kuin tämä Ollilan luotsaama kulkee kuin hirvi.Siis oikein onnistunut esitys.
I am a electric guitar player. Every now and then I play with an idea, that what if Bach, Beethoven or Sibelius (indeed) had an electric guitar. Listening to this, I just have to think what if a gifted heavy metal musician had a symphonic orchestra!
Someone needs to start a petition to get the stolen lands of Karelia returned to Finland, Surely russia can understand that these simple lands belonged to Finns for hundreds of years before,
This was a joke for New Zealanders. We used this piece for a famous film back in the 70's and it is a national favourite. It seems to reflect the landscape in new Zealand so we thought Finland must be identical to us(this was before the days of Google Earth!)
Same happend to my mothers, not only did my Grandpa and Grandma lose lands once ( winterwar), but twice (continuation war),they was from Muolaa, my mother and her twin sister was sent to Sweden, never to return seeing grandad nor grandma alive, my Grandma is Buried in Karelia, 2 of my Uncles fought for Finlands Freedom, one got killed in action.Quite a lot of sacrifice for a humble rural family... And what i know of about Russia "giving back" Karjala, to cite Putin in one word "Nope!"
This was the theme from current affairs programme "This Week" in Britain from 1963 till 1994 used to like just hearing the song more than anything to be honest, and hated it when they ran out of time and cut it off half way through.
Sibelius is a great composer. I'm not Finnish but I just love his music. I've told my children I'd like this piece played at my funeral a great way to bow out with fabulous music ringing in their ears.

And that's where I heard it first - all the way back in the pre-decimal days. I had to wait until You Tube to find out what it was called.
this was the tune for the sport area from the Chilean TV channel.. from the 70 to 90´...yeah, the good old days
Karelia will be ours again!
Makes me cry every time ! What a wonderful piece so delicately performed !
Es increíble como el sonido de la música no tiene frontera y hace vibrar el alma de todo ser humano.
One of my first musical memories wafting up from my parents' record player after sent to bed as a 7 yr old.
Happy if it's to be my last.
It's been a long lime since I've heard this, now I can't stop playing it. It's so uplifting.
This is one of Sibelius' compositions I love most. The march beginning in pianissimo, until it is shown in all its glory is indeed amazing.
My beautiful Finland! my love..... KITTOS SIBELIUS
Olen ylpeä siitä että olen syntynyt Sibeliuksen hengessä suomalaiseksi!
Hyss hyss.. Tuommoinen puhe on nykySuomessa rasistista vihapuhetta.

For all of we oldies and creaky ones, this is a great piece of music to get through a few stretchy and bendy exercises.
