- Jari is the vocalist and mastermind behind Wintersun and a former member of Ensiferum. His voice has great diversity that fits perfectly into his style of songwriting. He is definitely an underrated singer and extremely impressive considering he's missing 25% of his lungs due to tuberculosis. Definitely someone worth checking out!

NOTES FROM THE VIDEO BECAUSE TH-cam WONT LET ME PUT THESE IN ANNOTATIONS OR DESCRIPTION:
LOW NOTES:
0:16 Hi guys, wintersun meme here
0:18 D3s with A2s in the backing harmonies from Death and the Healing)
0:32 short D3s in the low harmonies from "Fly into the Sky"
0:48 First clip from the Forest Seasons album! Beautiful singing around D3 and C3 in "Loneliness (Winter)"
1:01 Strong C3s and a short G2 in the calm part of "Sons of Winter and Stars"
1:21 Lai Lai Hei with A2s and B2s in the backing harmonies (also Jari singing up to excellent C#5s)
1:49 A short sung B2 from "Memory"
1:57 Strangely, Jari's lowest actually sung notes, A2s from "Starchild"
2:13 the first of many Jari's spoken passages, "Sleeping Stars" with lines reaching F#2s
2:33 "Beyond the Dark Sun" with spoken G2s and short F2s
2:52 "Guardians of Fate" with strange-sounding F#2s that momentarily dip down to E2. These notes are clearly at the bottom of his full range.
3:07 Definitely at the bottom of his range, several Eb2s that dip to lower notes as well, even a weak vocal fry G1. This is the isolated track from "Sons of Winter and Stars"
3:35 A short D2 from "Devotion", a song with Jari as a guest singer
3:42 A barely audible spoken passage from a live performance of "Way of the Fire". I can't make out these notes completely but it seems like it's around D2. The background actually also features a passage that goes up to A5, but it's even less audible in the clip, a better quality can be heard here th-cam.com/video/1XKnwwJ2pgs/w-d-xo.html, the A5 is at 2:55
4:16 "Awaken from the Dark Slumber (Spring)" spoken lines all on C#2!
4:37 Eb2s and C2s from "Eternal Darkness (Autumn)" in the first clip, and in the 2nd clip also weak vocal fry notes down in the 1st octave, again unsure of the exact pitch of the fry notes but again we hear Eb2s and C2s.
5:36 Lowest notes ever heard from Jari, sounding almost peter steele-ish, vocal fry reaches down to D1. These notes are likely pitch shifted though so they're higher than what is pitched
HIGH NOTES:
6:03 Check these notes out!
6:08 The sung melodies from "Awakening from the Dark Slumber (Spring) Part 1" cycling between Bb4 and A4
6:29 VVisions...uh I mean "The Forest That Weeps (Summer)" chorus lines again cycling between Bb4 and A4
6:56 Absolutely beautiful singing from Jari's best vocal performance to date, "Loneliness (Winter)" with a lot of beautiful and emotional Bb4s and A4s, two lines in the chorus featuring a full C5!
7:43 Intense A4s and a B4 from "Battle Against Time"
7:53 Pre-chorus of "Way of the Fire" with loads of Bb4s and A4s and a brief C5!
8:14 Strong B4 and an ascend to an epic D5 in "Winter Madness"
8:26 A short B4 in the harmony vocals in "Sleeping Stars". Clip ends on a great and strong G4
8:39 Entire lines sung around C5 in "Starchild". Impressive!
8:55 The epic looong C5 from the first part of "Time"
9:13 "Land of Snow and Sorrow" backing vocals. Difficult to pitch precisely because of all the effects and the mixing but the lines definitely reach notes up to C5 several times. A fantastic vocal performance. Around the middle of the clip there's also an F5 in the backing vocals but it sounds pitch-shifted so idk
10:00 a C#5 from the ending of the Ensiferum track "Slayer of Light". Powerful!
10:10 backing harmonies of "Sons of Winter and Stars", with a goude D5-C5-D5 dip.
10:26 Backing vocals again, this time in "Beautiful Death", starting the line at D5 before dropping to C5. The next clip features C#5 and C5 from the same song
10:47 The climax of "Time" with an insane D5 and C5 after a short Eb5. One of my favourite vocal moments from Jari
11:05 Chorus of "Way of the Fire" with a short but intense D5 in the background!
11:29 We can't forget about Jari's falsetto. Notes up to D5 in the isolated track of "Loneliness (Winter)"
11:50 The climax of "The Awakening" from "Awaken from the Dark Slumber (Spring)" with two insane D5s, the 2nd one briefly ascending to Eb5!
12:13 head voice C5 and Eb5 in "Devotion" Jari starts shifting to other registers around here
12:22 CRAZY verses from "Sword Chant" with two clips as an example, where he sings entire lines on D5 and even ends them on E5!!
12:46 "A Chance to Live Again" from Immemorial with an E5 in the harmony vocals around the end of the song
12:58 One of Jari's absolute best notes in my opinion, the E5 from "Starchild"
13:15 "Sword Chant" with a long E5, another impressive note
13:30 "Sons of Winter and Stars" vocal track again with the backing high vocals reaching notes up to F5 but predominantly staying around C5/D5. An amazing C5 concludes the clip.
14:09 and now to his harsh/growly notes, another classic note, the ending of "Sadness and Hate" with an emotional distorted E5 climax.
14:29 the F5 from "Beyond the Dark Sun"
14:36 the highest notes in "Winter Madness", E5 that rises up to an F5!
14:46 Notes more or less only audible in the isolated track, a demanding ascend to F5 from "Sons of Winter and Stars"
14:59 Another chorus of "Way of the Fire", with an F5 in the background vocals (hopefully this will be more audible once we actually get a studio version)
15:20 A screamed F5 in "Starchild"
15:33 The vocal track of "Eternal Darkness (Autumn)" with VERY harsh screamed D5s and E5 that quickly thrills up to F5
15:59 The highest note in "Slayer of Light" and one of Jari's highest notes, F#5! Reminds me of King Diamond (pls notice the epic foreshadowing)
16:10 The backing vocals of "Lai Lai Hei" reaching F#5
16:30 a screamed E5 followed by another screamed G5 in "Fly Into the Sky", Jari's highest distorted note.
17:00 "Way of the Fire" backing vocals. I actually never noticed these notes until making this video and paying closer attention. There's definitely some insane vocals going on the in the backing harmonies that are barely audible here (are played back with the rest of the orchestration) After about a thousand listens, I think they top at G5, but can't wait to hear these on the album! They would be Jari's highest sung notes!
17:37 Jari Diamond! Jari's highest notes! G#5s and a G5 from this clip. That's right, G#5s! and Jari heard them and knew that they were goude.
unsure about the note at 18:18... maybe I should ask Kai, he's the expert on thicc drums
so goude
10:37 fucking epic. Insane growling and then insane scream, then back to insane growling :D
11:50 again.
The "Will this be forever" from slumber is the most intense Imo.
Destructive Revange the "forever" from The Forest That Weeps too
Destructive Revange Oh please don't leave me nowwwwwwwwwwwwhowwwwww!
Yes! Also "Lost in the beautiful silence... Oh the beautiful sileeeeeeeeeeeeence!!!"
@@pavimaris I give my life to YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooou!
people cannot appreciate the masterful forest seasons enough
man there's something magical about Jari-era Ensiferum. Lai Lai Hei is such a perfect folk metal song
Great compilation! Interesting and helps me a lot to practise my singing.
Jari is truly impressive
Came here to see if SPIIIRRIIITTTSS was included, wasn't disappointed
This video is INSANE
Wow, thank you so much for your enormous work, collecting all these vocal samples!
Btw, what is that cover when Starchild is playing? Never seen that one before :D I guess it must be a fan-created cover, still it was unknown for me.
Edit: I know nothing about drums, but my guess on note 18:18 would be and ASSb. I heard some drummer guys talking about a Legendary note which is heard only once at the end of an almost 20 minutes long educational video. Maybe I've just heard two legends in this vid!
I found the base for it on deviantart, hence the author's signature. But I did some edits in photoshop and added the logo so I can use it as my phone wallpaper
well I've heard another legend about the note. Many eons ago, before the existence of Time, there was a god that found himself as the only thing in existence. He feels lonely but instead of creating anyone or anything to keep him company, he feels like the feeling of loneliness is a much deeper emotion and thus sets a sequence of events in motion to create a vast endless universe devoid of sentient life, and thus he explores his own creation and gets bored so one day, this god, Jari, created Teemu in his own image. He gave him epic cheekbones and lush hair and heavenly skills to play the lute. And he looked at him and he saw that it was goude. It is said that jukka was created when jari accidentally got his testicles stuck in the seat of the sauna from the sweat, pulling on them, that caused him to shout in pain, but the shout came out as a very low growl that shook the grounds of the sauna, and out of jari's asscheeks fell an egg, and out of that egg came jukka. The legend of Kai Hahto is unknown in its entirety but on one fateful day, when that legendary ASSb note was made, a great quake occured that shook the heavens and the earth, where kai crawled out of the (ass)cracks in the ground and his drumsticks floated down slowly from the sky covered by heavenly light. They were the drumsticks of destiny.
this is part 1 of the story known to us. Part 2 coming after 3 crowdfunds
He has to open his voice.
Yes he has to use more twang
I understood that reference
D1-G#5 melodic range in my opinion
Nice, I think all the notes are here, I can't think of anything missing.
that's the same clip as 3:44 in the range video... the notes are topping at F5/G5, it seems to be the same passages that I added at 17:02. I simply decided to put that clip at the end to avoid using the same clip twice since those high notes happen right at the low part XD
But really nice that you found a version where these notes are much more audible, I was looking for a recording where these notes were better audible for like an hour when making this vid and couldn't find one xD I'd add it in annotations but...youtube kinda doesnt have the annotation option anymore
actually, upon further inspection and since the notes are much clearer in that version, I think those high notes at that part go G5-A5-E5, that's Jari's highest notes! thanks for this :D
Nice video! , whats the name of the song at 3:44 ?
That's the Way of the Fire from Time II.
The way of the fire, the song is not released yet
August 30th brothers
Time II D-76 😎
... , 1, ...
Is jari using false cords' or fry scream technique ?
yea he does fry screams
Both. When the screams have less tone to them and are more "gritty", that's usually false cord. When he does those tonal high screams, those are technically fry screams with a tonal overlay. Hardest vocal style to learn, in my opinion!
Is it possible that female voices in Loneliness are singed by Jari? Or they are artificial?
that's jari's voice. The recording of them is even shown in the forest documentary.
hahaha wtf
I think most of the low notes in "Into Battle" were from Sami, actually.
i thought so too but they were listed as Jari's notes in the range thread and...zeddsquared (the thread's author) is quite an active and trustworthy member of the site so I went with it
Whats the name of the song with lowest note
Immemorial-When the Rain Ends
Thanks man
What's the first sone
you mean in the intro? Wintersun-Starchild
