Recorded live on December 9, 2011, at All Saints Episcopal Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Performed by The Concert Choir ensemble of The Girl Choir of South Florida. Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson. The joik is a unique form of cultural expression for The Sami people in norThern Scandinavia. Each joik is meant to reflect a person or place. This does not mean that it is a song about The person or place, but that The joiker is attempting to transfer "The essence" of that person or place into song—one joiks Their friend, not about Their friend. This joik is The essence of a young boy's dream of riding through The snow on The back of a reindeer.  less
