About "Te Orbina"
This melody is rooted in the ancient and non-verbal tradition of joiking. It’s found in the culture of the sami people which inhabits the northern part of both Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia. Traditionally the joik is a musical manifestation of for example a person, a natural phenomenon or a feeling. We have been told that this joik melody originally was dedicated to an orphan.
