A multidisciplinary performance guide to Tunturilauluja, Opp. 52-54, by Yrjö Kilpinen (1892-1959)Mallory, Jason Dennis 01 January 2014 (has links)
The Finnish composer Yrjö Kilpinen is not well known today, but in the early twentieth century in Scandinavia, Germany, and England, he was hailed as the successor to Schubert, Schumann, Brahms, and Wolf in the line of Romantic Lied composers. Many have argued for the inclusion of his music in the American voice studio, but there remain impediments to the performance of his songs in their original language. One of his most poignant and famous cycles, Tunturilauluja, Opp. 52-54, remains inaccessible to most singers who are not fluent in Finnish and do not understand the Finnish culture upon which the songs are based. This essay is a performance guide to these songs and endeavors to make them accessible to sing in their original language.
The essay addresses many of the issues that have heretofore prevented performance of this cycle. A guide to Finnish translation and lyric diction is provided in addition to literal and poetic translations and an International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) transcription of the cycle. Kilpinen's life and song style is considered, with particular interest afforded to reasons for his marginalization after World War II. The essay contains the first English language source, however brief, on the cycle's obscure poet, the Laplander Vilho Edvard Törmänen. Kilpinen's setting of the poetry, guidelines for choosing individual songs, and the cycle considered as a whole are also discussed.
This performance guide takes a multidisciplinary approach to the songs, frequently referencing Finnish culture and Lapland geography, which sheds light on specific links between the landscape, poetry, and music. The essay contains discussions of Finnish art, National Landscape Imagery, and photographs from the author's personal research. This methodology facilitates non-fluent singers to sing this cycle in Finnish.

Finska krigsbarn i NorrbottenLundmark Åström, Jennifer January 2020 (has links)
This essay is about the children who came from Finland to the province of Norrbotten in northern Sweden during World War II, how local communities came to help Finnish warchildren and the experiences of Finnish war-children in northern Sweden during the latter part of the twentieth century. This will be investigated by the help of the social affinity theory, that comes with solidarity with people and places experienced as “close”. The social affinity theory helps explaining why Sweden was inclined to help Finland during World War II. The essay includes three interviews, two with war children, and one with a child of a war child that came to stay in Sweden after the war.

The Maintenance Of Ethnic Culture And Manifestations Of Ethnic Identity In The Life Stories Of Finnish ImmigrantsGrantham, Minna 01 January 2005 (has links)
This study examined whether Finnish immigrants show evidence of assimilation or if they have maintained their ethnic culture in the United States. More specifically, the purpose was to examine how the ethnic culture has been maintained and the ways that ethnic identity manifests itself in their life stories. Ten qualitative, semi-structured interviews were conducted with Finnish immigrants and children of Finnish immigrants, and emerging themes were identified in the data. The results indicate a strong ethnic identity among Finnish immigrants, yet it appears to be a very much taken for granted experience for them. The immigrants' lives were influenced by their ethnicity in that they lived in predominantly Finnish areas, preferred Finnish as their daily language, participated in Finnish activities, especially the Lutheran church, followed customs, and kept regular contact with friends and family in Finland. One of the major differences between the immigrants and children of immigrants was their language use. The norms and policies have been that ethnic groups will assimilate; yet this cohort of Finnish immigrants demonstrates a high level of maintenance of their ancestral culture, thus providing support for Cultural Pluralism. Future studies should address the specific organizations, mainly the Lutheran church, and its influence on the maintenance of Finnish culture, and future studies should address the meaning of language in more detail.
