thumb|Kipparikvartetti, 1952 (Auvo Nuotio, Olavi Virta, Teijo Joutsela, Kauko Käyhkö) Kipparikvartetti (literally "skipper quartet") was a Finnish vocal group (quartet) initially put together by Harry Bergström that existed during 1951–1983.
==History== The quartet was first brought together for the 1950 musical comedy film to voice the singing crew of a steamboat, under the direction of Bergström. Only Olavi Virta was seen on screen; Teijo Joutsela, Auvo Nuotio and Kauko Käyhkö only lent their voices. Due to the film's success Bergström formed a real quartet that debuted the following year.
