• Savonpojan Amerikkaan tulo

This is an old Finnish immigrants songs from the USA recorded in New York on 18.05.1928. Hiski Salomaa wasn't the most famous singer in Finns ballrooms, but he is one of those few, whose songs were recorded and whose recordings have survived through these years. These songs are mainly stories about hard work, homesick and clever quips about their new home country. Finnish immigrants were known as "quiet people", they were hard workers working mainly as loggers and miners. In their free time they gathered together at their Halls where this kind of travelling musician entertained them. In some songs they are using Fingelska, an language including some words from English.

My hope is , that everyone can just listen to these songs and think some minutes of those hard times, which these brave men and women has spent far away from home. Enjoy! ©
