Finlandia, the music, is like the country, Suomi, and it's people.

What a beautiful version of Finlandia - somehow this song captures the essence of what it means, for me, to be a Finn. It never fails to evoke strong emotion in me. A little pride, much joy, a great deal of gratitude, and deep sense of HOME, where I belong. Tippa silmässä kuuntelin, heti kun kuoro tuli mukaan. :)

I can’t believe KZread interrupted this incredibly beautiful music for a Zillow ad!!! Zillow is now off my list of real estate companies. Never again.

I hadn't seen this video till tonight. it is extraordinarily moving, not only the music, but the way the singers are distributed informally around the audience makes it feel everyone is united as one nation. I visited Finland once, more than 40 years ago, and will never forget it. A beautiful and civilised and brave country.

the lyrics were written over 40 years afterwards, during which time Finland had had it's first parliamentary elections under russian rule, then gained independence, fought civil war, experienced other political turmoil and gradual stabilization and democratic development, and then winter war started and the lyrics were written at the end of that war. they're good lyrics and do reflect the spirit of the music and its original intent but often people misunderstand the historical context. reminds me of the star-spangled banner, which was written in 1814 (during the war of 1812); people generally think the lyrics refer to the war of independence (and the surely can, and practically do but not originally) but they were written about a certain battle in the war of 1812.

So many comments! This isn't surprising as Finlandia is one of the greatest pieces of music ever written. What an evening it must have been when the new concert hall was opened. My wife and I are Brits but we just love Scandinavia and Scandinavian people.

The skylark calls across the light of morning, the blue of heaven lets it have its way, and now the day the powers of night is scorning: thy daylight dawns, O Finland of ours! Finland, arise, and raise towards the highest thy head now crowned with mighty memory. Finland, arise, for to the world thou criest that thou hast thrown off thy slavery, beneath oppression´s yoke thou never liest. Thy morning´s come, O Finland of ours!

playing this was literally the best as a violinist. even tho it was an arrangement and a youth orchestra without a bassoon, one oboe, one clarinet, only two horns, 3 percussionists, and one bass, it still sounded really epic thanks to our amazing conductor. we didn't have a choir, but i really wish they recorded it bc it was really epic

Finlandia is a deep piece of music, also broad and high. It talks about our noble aspirations, the ideal homeland of our dreams, where life will reveal its true meaning. The winds, chords, percussions, all imitate sounds of nature in a sublime way, and the choir brings everything to a climax.

Listening to this beautiful music reminds me of my co-worker from many years ago--Urho (Al) Lehikoinen, a great Finnish patriot in WWII. God bless you, Al !

Oh wow thats the best rendition of Finlandia I've ever heard.

This Finlandia is fantastic and no more words about this performance is necessary. With deep feeling. Truly beautiful. Great composer Sibelius.

I know only two Finns, namely, Sibelius and Torvalds. Both contributed, the latter one still contributing, greatly to enriching my life. I always love to hear Sibelius. Torvalds freed me from unbearable Windows to enjoy computing. I will soon prepare a collection of my favorites in a memory card to be played at my death bed. Sibelius #2, #5, #7 and Finlandia will surely be in it. I wish I could go when Finlandia is being played.

Hele goede registratie van deze prachtige uitvoering van de compositie van deze componist.

By far the greatest and most inspired performance of finlandia I have ever heard!!! So true to the Finnish soul , while yet transending all ethnic and nationalistic boundaries and speaking to the hopes and aspirations of all men who desire freedom!!! The interactive placement of the chorus with the audience was a stroke of genius !!! Which even yielded more power to this epic performance!!! Take note ! This is how you break in a new music Hall !!!

This is 8min and 40sec of goosebumps. Thank you Sibelius, thank you Finland, and happy independence day!

I havent't seen a more respectfull elite crowd before, the decibel level before the orchestra begins is even low from a library, not a single phone or flash or even a whisper. The term civilisation has many aspects but most important of all is this display of utmost respect to art and artists.

🌹🌹🌹Thabk you. My country

Sibelius u genius. One of my favorite pieces. Used to listen to this on loop when I was like 10 years old.

i actually cried while listening to this

I'm not even Finnish, why am I crying

Goosebumps and tears from the tropics. Thanks god Sibelius. Thanks Finland for the gift of this genius and this masterwork.

I’m 14 and a cellist, I am playing this for full orchestra and I’m so excited to see how it turns out, it’s so beautiful and it makes me feel so many emotions, I hope it feels this way for you too.

Magnificent. A briliant and inspired composition performed with passion and mastery. THANK YOU!

A truly beautiful performance of a great piece on music.

Never heard this with singing, wow, thanks so much!

It takes the Finns to perform Finnish music correctly. Absolutely magnificent. Thanks so much :-D

The usual idiocy: NO - FINNISH MUSIC DOES NOT NEED TO BE PERFORMED BY FINNS TO BE PLAYED CORRECTLY!!! MUSIC TRANSCENDS NATIONALITY

He may be referring to the vocals on the Hymni---which aren't part of Sibelius' original composition. Chorales from other countries never get the pronunciation exactly correct.

At first, I thought your comment was a bit ignorant. I've played this in an orchestra, and it's one of my favourites to play. But after listening to this version......I have to say it is quite honestly the best version I've ever heard. Also, first time I heard it with a choir. Spectacular......

Elizabeth Sherpa the BBC Symphony also has a fine version of Finlandia, that they did as a tribute to Finland's independence centennial. But, they do have a Finnish conductor, Sakari Oramo. 😉

Thanks for the tip ,Mike. I just checked it out and that was fabulous too. I love watching Sakari Oramo. I think he really enjoyed that.

What an appropiate piece to open the new Helsinki music hall.

Äänet olivat upea, täynnä ja rikas. Puhallinkuoron hieno esitys! Juhla aisteille. Olet vetänyt kyyneleitä tämän amerikkalaisen silmistä. Joten upea ja intohimoinen ja puhdas. Rakkaus tulee kauniisti läpi. Kiitos! Bravo kaikille!

Truly Beautiful piece of music and a Great patriotic song ( especially with added Choir ) . But any good version , I would listen to over and over again ! FANTASTIC !!!!!

I played this with our school Orchestra to the ceremony where my brother got his school report and we are from Finland so I geht goosebumps everytime I hear this. It's a masterpiece

I was in Helsinki when the Musiikkitalo openend, watched this on tv.

what a big emotion this amazing chorus, like angels

Viva Finland! To the great finish people who knows true value of freedom and independant.

Wow. I've never heard it with the choir before; that really adds something. And the hall looks spectacular.
