Helsinki Complaints Choir

November 24, 2006

Finnish artists Tellervo Kalleinen and Oliver Kochta-Kalleinen collected the pet peeves and angst-ridden pleas of people in Helsinki and then composed this choral work around the list of complaints.

My favorite line: “Finnish language is bloody hard to learn!”

    Hah, that’s funny. It’d probably be funnier if it actually played straight through instead of stopping every 2 minutes but that’s dialup for ya.

    I’m not sure if this is the first time I’ve commented or not, but I’ve been a long time ready. Anyway, I think this video is brilliant, and the choir sounds amazing. I wish someone here would be creative enough to think of something like this.
