Elisabeth Misvær & Trygve Misvær - Bägga Vuolev Guaddá - Vinden Bærer Joiken - The Wind Carries the Yoik (2024) [24/48]

Elisabeth Misvær has taken the initiative to revive several old joiks and to publish these in an album. These traditional joiks have been taken from several valuable sources, including sound files and transcriptions from Karl Tirén's records and documentation of joik from the years 1909-1913. In addition, she has gained access to sources that include old private recordings from Nils Lennart Ranberg from Fauske. Elisabeth is concerned with generational and tradition transmission and has brought her son Trygve along in this work. The album mainly contains Pit Sami joiks (vuolle), but also joik from Ume Sami and Lule Sami areas, two Sea Sami joiks from Måsøy in Finnmark as well as two new joik compositions.

With this recording, the aim is to shed light on the wide range of joiks from various traditional areas, to promote the Pitesami language and Pitesami joik (vuolle), as well as to contribute to innovation within the joik tradition both from Pitesami areas and other Sami regions in Sápmi. The recording of this album represents a valuable effort in documentation, and it is of the utmost importance to share this music with a wider audience. The recording is supported by the Sami Parliament.

The producer and organizer is the Sami-Norwegian musician and composer John-Kåre Hansen from Alta. Participating musicians are Elisabeth Misvær (joik), Trygve Misvær (joik), Arnfinn Bergrabb (drums and percussion), Christo Stangness (double bass), Andrej Stepanov (accordion) and John-Kåre Hansen (guitar, piano and Fender Rhodes). Recording, mixing and mastering is by Martin Bowitz, Store Studio AS.
