*Hey Beth. Im from Latvia didnt expect to see EVER something from my country* :D Thanks.
No problem!!
Right?! Fellow Latvian metalhead here
Gluži manas domas 🫢
So in neighboring Lithuania, they also celebrate "Rasos", midsummers. They also search for the fern flower. But it's well understood that searching the fern flower is an excuse for young couples to elope to the woods, for some, um, "alone time".
@@WilliamJohnstone-cj5od Who hurt you?
It's Rasa. Rasos is the genitive form. For instance, Rasos Naktis is Rasa Night (or Summer Solstice Night). Rasos Šventė is Rasa Holiday/Festival. You would never simply say Rasos - to use that declension it must be modifying another noun. But yes, Jani and Rasa are very similar.
Exactly. In Latvia, "looking for a fern flower" on a midsummer night is also not about wish-granting but a euphemism for copulation because there is no such thing as a flowering fern.
YES, YES, YOU AND YOUR LITHUANIA, OFCOURSE.......... GET LOST , I'm from Latvia, there we talk about Latvia, nothing to do with your Lithuania at all like ever ...
@@Lita-bj5ir Wow Lita, there are friendly neighbors who celebrate each other, and then there is you.
Huge thanks for that video!! If honestly it's my first time when I saw people from different countries making reaction videos of our Latvian music ❤️❤️❤️🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻
The voices! The dance! The smiles! The language! The outfits! This was such a joy to watch and listen to.
And... now that you brought it up... I think you need to gather a couple of your lady friends and show off one of those Scottish weavers songs for us!
A gorgeous discovery of sound and culture! 🎉 a treasure trove! 🎉 🎤 🎧 !!
I love music 🎼 from different countries. I have seen Traditional German and Irish ☘️ song and dance 💃 and it was fantastic. 👍❤️ Thanks for sharing this Beth.
This is from their self-titled 2018 album, which has so many great tracks. Hopefully you can check them out someday! 😊
Don't know much about Latvia...it's next to Russia and is a Baltic country...but..if they like beer and cheese they would fit right in with Wisconsin 😊. Interesting concept that music echoed nature traditionally because nature was there, etc. I tend to think music still echoes nature but in many more forms because new forms have been created. Yesterday...drums. Today..orchestras. Just thinking out loud. This was a fun song. I need to attend that festival...lots of benefits! 😁
There is actually a traditional Latvian homestead in Wisconsin that is owned by a collective of Latvian pagans/Dievturi, so you're spot on! They maintain the house and use it for holidays and celebrations but rent out the farmland. I think to Amish. I'm a Lithuanian pagan/ Romuva and was fortunate to have been invited there as a guest once.
The ancient-spirited music, folky dancing with costumes that unite old fashion with modern twist and then bicycle sprockets as necklaces? They wanted to throw it all in!
Anyway this music is so bond to a specific region and on the other hand if I close my eyes it can be native americans dancing around the fire or caribbean tribes celebrating on the beaches or maybe carnival in brazil or south-east asians in the monsun rain forrest...
Trad Tuesdays are a fantastic idea, really down for that.
I'd love to suggest Verka Siderova (Lale li si, godini godini,...), Stefka Sabotinova (Prituri se Planinata), Vulkana Stoyanova (Jenala e dyulber Yana), Abagar Quartet (Shopski pripevki) [Bulgaria], Nick Hart (especially from the new record with Tom Moore [UK], Ugniavijas (Tu Eglute) and Obelija (Kas tar taka) [Lithuania]
Tautumeitas are amazing. Since you mentioned sisterhood, Asnate and Aurelija (the third, and the fourth) are actually sisters. The only other member still in the band is Laura (the first one). Unfortunately, they are constantly struggling to have six members.
actually Raganu nakts means Witchcraft night :) I am from Latvia and Midsomer festival is connected to nature celebration. Love your reactions and emotions
P.S. in order to have correctly ritual you would need to roll in meadow naked :D are you properad to this? here is some other folk song where women song together th-cam.com/video/rETv-fv6RWs/w-d-xo.html
Great that you posted your Patreon this time. Great site ! This rhythm track reminds me of Clannad. The harp player is Maire (Moyo) Brennan. (Enyas sister) clannad and especially Moyo's first album have wonderful drumbeat tracks.
I like All the songs of them. They're the very talented girls
Good one. Raganu Nakts actually means Witches Night in Latvian. Thus, the girls are in black. And the roar is one of the Wolf... or even worse. No lions in Latvia yet.
I really enjoyed this Beth! The singing, dancing, instruments, and music reminded me of other cultures, while different, are very similar. And your comments and explanations are always incitefu. Thanks Professor Beth.😊
I always get tingles up my spine at the point when they cascade out of monody into a-capella harmony.
The polytheistic cultures of the eastern Baltic, which persisted into the 12th century before being swamped by christianity, were pretty special; proto-democratic and with gender equality, and a non-exploitative attitude to the nature around them. They were the diametric opposite of the strongly hierarchical and feudalistic Christian societies to the south and west. There has been a revival of that pre-christian tradition in recent years and I think that is a commendable thing.
Romantic and foolish. True Christianity is better than paganism.
You are awesome, you could be one of the līgo meitas. Its a magical experience. Embrace the paganism and enjoy the flow. Jauku nakti un sveiki :)
ferm flowers and all the stuff around mid summer is all about copulation. The purpose was to get a child in march as a it's the spring time, you'll get the child.
The docu film "baltic tribes" is free in the states (with commercial) and really cool to watch !
in Estonia, we have also lots of such kind songs and stuff
Also, Beth. Another great site for World Music is PLAYING FOR CHANGE.
They'll play a song like Peace Train and for that one song cut to 20 different countries with all kinds of World intruments....all during that one song. Finally they cut to Cat Stevens to end his own song on piano. It includes choirs from around the wold as well.

A typical son of Jāņi is this one: th-cam.com/video/A2r-uspx6LM/w-d-xo.html , where different folk groups are singing about the oak tree. All musicians, except the firth group, are dressed in folk costumes (though, in case of kids, it is simply the cheapest version possible), and one more detail: men always have crowns oak leaves, but women - of flowers, and all women, even the married ones, are allowed to wear hair uncovered and loose (though married women did not cover their hear until high middle ages or so).
💗💗
Buen programa 👏🥰

Beth, as exciting as this is to many, this is essentially the worship of pre-Christian gods. These women have chosen to by-pass Christianity. Not advisable. Yes, it is invigorating, earthy, fun, fun, fun .. but what is it really ? Paganism.
Not everyone believes in your Abrahamic entity. 🙄
5:09 - The whole "Looking for the Fern Flower" thing is also more of an excuse for young couples to disappear into the forest for a while. And since Jāņi also is a celebration of fertility... well. I don't think I have to tell you. 🤭

Hi, Beth! You've encountered Tautumeitas at last. They are realy great! Please, check, if you'd like, some other excellent songs of them: Spodre manu auguminu or Dai citas meitas. These you can find as live performance. Have fun!
If Beth liked Tautumeitas then DakhaBrakha will blow up her world. I would suggest Yahudki or Baby, but there is a TH-cam video with both groups playing together in 2018 blending beautifully their respective songs... it is brilliant!
@@PedroDiLella-yes! I'd also like to see her react to some Lithuanian sutartines - like those by Trys Keturiose since she was talking about women singing together. I'll have to choose a song and come back and edit this comment. Ot even Kulgrinda - perhaps Sadula Gadula.
As a Latvian -American
Raganu is the Latvian word for Witch, Ragana is sigular (Witch) and u acts like 's in English, Nakts = Night. Thus the title is Witch's Night. Which in Latvia isn't Halloween but the Summer Solstice (June 21st) Summer Solstice is to this day a very proud Pagan celebration in Latvia. It's 3 day Federal Holiday! Latvians go wild during this Festival. The Victory of Light over Darkness. Considering, Latvia is very far Northern Europe and Cold the rest of the year. Sun Worship was very popular to Pagan Ancestry and is to this day to some extent. :)
Folklore tells us that on the Summer Solstice the Witches, Sorcerers, and Werewolves Fly on that night like no other and hold their Witches Sabbath's Celebrations too!
Latvia and our Sister Nations of Lithuania and to some extent Estonia were the collectively know as Baltic Tribes. Were the very last Europeans forced to convert to Christianity from Paganism. In the time period of late 1200s to the 1600s. This was known as Baltic Crusade, when the Church sent in their armies to convert us or put us to the Sword. We revolted for the most part. The Crusades ended in a stalemate in 1630s when a truce was drawn up. Thus, the Baltic Tribes were never really 'converted.' Thus, to this day. Latvian, Lithuanian, and Estonians remain a curious mix of Pagan and Modern beliefs. They blend together.
In Latvian. Witches were NOT evil. They are supernatural creatures, yes. But also midwives, herbalists, healers. And they can also curse your cattle and sheep and give you warts or winky falls off. If you piss them off! In England, Wales, Ireland, and Scotland you call them "The Cunning Folk" Latvia had village Cunning Folk / Witches in rural villages commonly up to early 1900s.
I hope this helps your understanding of the song! They are singing about Mid-Summer Night when the Witches (Raganas) Fly!!
PS.. Throughout European Folklore, Myths and Legends of old. Red hair was often a sign of a Witch and associated with witchcraft. Believe it or not. No wonder you were drawn to this song, Beth. :) Just kidding, of course. But the belief was real and strong for the longest time.
Thank you, Beth! You made me proud of being latvian. This is rear feeling within me(for my own reasons). I was so happy to see you enjoying our folk (post-folk) music, and i have been singing and playing a little bit of it for myself. Please, enjoy also many other Tautumeitas performances. Those girls and our folk-music are worth it!
In Latvian, Ragana means witch.
The Latvians, ethnic European music with extreme intensity!
Hello! Beth Roars. I follow your channel and I really love your reactions.
I saw that you did several reactions with Brazilian singers, but you haven't done it with Tim Maia yet. You'll love his voice and his backing vocals. The recommended songs are:
"you";
She left.
Thank you very much
Great analysis, Beth. Love this band.
Yes, and i forgot to write - my best wishes to you! :)
