This question addresses to the webmaster.

Good morning,
I am trying to find a kantele music heard years ago on the internet. Timo Väänänen plays "Mid the hills of Karelia".

broken link ==> http://virtual.finland.fi/finfo/english/kantele.html

Would you tell me please what is the problem ?
Sites and pages changed and/or disappeared ?

Is it possible to hear somewhere this beautiful and moving recording ?

The site Virtual Finland has changed and it's called thisisFinland now http://finland.fi/public/ . The links referring the the old Virtual Finland are broken. Unfortunately a great part of the old contents have disappeared. I tried to locate the Kantele recording of "Karjalan kunnailla" by Timo Väänänen on Internet, but i found only information about the records by Timo Väänänen. This piece was'nt on his reocrds. I found an older recording of the song accompanied by kantele from the 1950's in Youtube, http://www.youtube.com/, with the search Karjalan kunnailla kantele (Anna Mutanen Karjalan kunnailla). In a music store recordings of the song could be found, but not the kantele-version http://music.nokia.fi/IE/Search.aspx?titlesearch=karjalan+kunnailla .
