This sounds to me like the most deep rooted music by Varttina that I have heard yet.
Early Varttina? Isn't the young lady on the right, the one who is in seelonikoi, Oi dai, Aijo? years later? I can't speak Finnish, I have a friend over there. But I do have a musta koira.

@EneriGiilaan I agree completely. Listening to some of their stuff when it's just the four of them it sounds awesome still yet also like something is lacking.

@Drbaconboy Minna Rautiainen. The vid is quite probably from 1990 in Sortavala/Russia - she left the band a couple of years later as she didn't want to consider singing as a career. Actually she still occasionally followed the band - taking care of the children of the other band members during the gigs/rehearsals and such.
I think she had a genuine "rural" sound in her voice that suited perfectly to their material in that era.

What is the name of the girl in the middle?

I love this version more than the album version, because not only is it Värttinä live, but it has more power in their voices, and it just has more emotion.
-
@laelamarie1 They had a percussionist, Christer Hackman in their line up at this time - one of his listed specialties was indeed darbuka/tabla. So you must be right - this is of course not by any means a trad Finnish instrument, but depending on the level of purism neither is any other instrument here ;)
Alexandria - of course - and now the lighthouse depicted there also makes sense, thanks.

@EneriGiilaan .. I know this is not the linguistic I'm inquiring about; however, is that a dombeck (darbuka,tabla are other names) that I am seeing in the beginning? I have one such as this and recognize the logo on the head - Alexandria Egypt - besides recognizing the sound. HURRAH! I will have drummers when I come there!!! Love these Varttina!!

This is fantastic!!! You GO SARI!!!!

@IhanaPuhuaSuomi I'm not a linguistic nor phoneticist - but anyways ;)
The sound in English "goo" matches Finnish long vowel "uu". I guess there is no English equivalent to Finnish "y" - it is close to German "ü" (über), Swedish "y" (ylle) or the "u" in French "une".
Here are some Värttinä examples (put the codes in YouTube search box):

At first it might be hard for an English speaker to even hear any difference?

Every time I see Finnish people singing folk songs I realise how beautifully can they do it...
