The Kalevala, or runic, songs is a tradition at least a few
thousand years old. It was shared by Finns, Estonians and other
speakers of smaller Baltic-Finnic languages inhabiting the eastern
side of the Baltic Sea in North-Eastern Europe. This book offers a
combined perspective of a musicologist and a linguist to the
structure of the runic songs. Archival recordings of the songs
originating mostly from the first half of the 20th century were
used as source material for this study. The results reveal a
complex interaction between three different processes participating
in singing: speech prosody, metre, and musical rhythm.
