Opening ceremoni with music by Kari Heimen
Master of ceremonies: Carola Kleemann
More information
The opening ceremony will start with a luohti performance by Kari Heimen. Luohti (joik in Norwegian) is a traditional form of song in Sámi music performed by the Sámi people of Sapmi in Northern Europe. A performer of luohti is called a juoigi (Norwegian: joiker). As an art form, each luohti is meant to reflect or evoke a person, animal, or place. The sound of luohti is comparable to the traditional chanting of some Native American cultures. Luohti shares some features with the shamanistic cultures of Siberia, which mimic the sounds of nature.
Kari Heimen is the composer, drummer and lead singer in her band HEIMEN. She is also a solo artist performing yoik.
Kari is an assimilated Sami woman, who is regaining her Sami identity amongst other things in her music. HEIMEN’s latest album deals with the assimilation policy carried out by the Norwegian government against the Sami people.
“Historier – Vi hentes hjem” – “Coming home”.
