thank you for the link old tiger...15 good videos to listen to there..
wish I was in Germany today..she's at the Worms jazz festival.....

thank goodness she's revived attention to the music of her people..
seems that at one time the Sami /Joik music and drumming was banned and seen as coming from the devil...
Crazy..it's such a beautiful sound.
