The concert was held at Stigen farm in Aurlandsfjord , Norway . The whole area is incredible beautiful!
It looks stunning!
And Eivor was actually doin a lill act in Norwegian band Vamps consert. You should also try them out 😎❤️🇧🇻
I feel like a Norwegian Blue - pining 4 the fjords...
i cant wait to watch your reaction to falling free 😁
@xninaschofield3196 🍆
She did Trøllabundin at her concert with Einar Selvik (Wardruna) and the Danish Symphony Orchestra 6 weeks ago. It was magical:)
i cannot decide which version i like better. this one here? or the one you mentioned? both so good!
Eivor is one of the best vocalists of our time. She should be much more well known.
The drummer from Vamp 😎🇧🇻.
There's a vast catalog of Eivor songs for you to explore. Two of my personal favorites are "Falling Free" (live in Torshavn) and "Gullspunnin" (look for one of the live performances). Whatever you choose, I'm sure you'll be swept off your feet...
That Torshavn live is completely bonkers ... what a performance
About time more people discover this song!!
Imagine being in a fishing boat and hearing that voice reverberate off the mountains-
My reaction? Tears and chills EVERY time I watch/listen to this
Tröll is nordic for what you Brits would call Trolls, but this word in Faeroese simply means "spellbound", by someone who is bound by "galdrar" (magic) - the second line is "galdramaður festi mig" (my Icelandic version of Eivör's Faeroese line). That means, syllable by syllable "magic man bound me", or something to that effect.
I have been an Eivör fan for over a decade, ever since she was a young Faeroese girl practicing (and learning) her art in my native Iceland. Like only the Faeroese can do, she speaks and sings flawlessly in Icelandic, among other languages. Unfortunately we Icelanders cannot claim the same with Faeroese pronunciation, we are dismal at speaking proper Faeroese.
This sounded very primal. A feeling of native American/Siberian/Old Norse. It must have been spectacular live.
...........👆👆👆 Now..........🎁🎸🎸
What does it do to me...? Do I dance to the beat? No. Am I absorbed by her voice? No.
I'm just all goosebumps and trying to make it to the end of the song without getting cramps in my follicles
An astute reaction, as always, Nina. This is a rare example where the stunning beauty of the performance matches the glorious beauty of the setting. What an absolute treat for the very, very fortunate few who were able to attend and a boon for many more thanks to this exquisite recording (which is the work of the peerless Norwegian broadcaster NRK, who are the power behind Aurora's Nidarosdomen and HAIK concerts). I have watched this many, many times and it never fails to totally enthrall.
I can only imagine being there in person, it looks magical ❤
Most people are introduced to Eivør with a more conventional song, like 'Falling Free' (Live at the Old Theater in Torshavn) : czcams.com/video/KNPIdGBn7M4/video.html but we know you like to do things differently ... 😊😉
Maybe you will like something by Jonna Jinton ... something like 'Kulning - Ancient Swedish herdingcall' : czcams.com/video/KvtT3UyhibQ/video.html
That one is my favourite by her. Absolutely perfection in every way❤️❤️❤️
All of her live performances are amazing!
This is so Scandinavian. I'm a Swedish-American and it really speaks to me. I love the tribal sound, coupled with the visuals of the fjords. Nice reaction, Nina!
falling free live in torshavn
truth live at studio bloch
true love live
boxes live 2012
í tokuni music video
those songs give credit to her vocal range, with both higer and lower register
she learned throat singing in greenland and the jodellike part is called kulning, an ancient vocal technique used to call for the animals during sheep herding
I'm smiling as you talk about her "breathy" vocals, knowing what's coming later in the song. So true, the song and the setting were a perfect match. And NRK nailed it, artistically.
As others have already said, absolutely treat yourself to Falling Free, live at the Old Theater in Torshavn. All of her music is wonderful. This video, and the Torshavn gig, are extra wonderful.
eivør has a sister, her name is elinborg and without any surprise: the talent seems to be genetic. sjórok in the acoustic version is simply beautiful
She sang the theme to the show "The last Kingdom", well the whole record really. I recommend it, it is on spotify and also a "pandemic from home"-recording on CZcams with the composer John Lunn. I love having that record on when I paint in my studio. Others suggest the "Falling free" song, which I also like, but one of my favourites of her is a song called "The swing". One of the few music experiences I share with my youngest daughter, Eivør transcends generations it seems.
Nice to see a reaction to Eivør! The title means "spellbound". Trøll/troll/etc means, well, troll 😁 In Nordic folklore, trolls were often considered to be magical beings. The word pops up in modern use now and then, for instance "trollkarl" (lit. "troll-man") in Swedish means magician, nowadays usually referring to stage magicians. Thanks for the reaction!
Amazing artist, saw her Saturday in London. Great gig.
I watched Eivor live in Uppsala. It was amazing, highly recommend getting a ticket to her shows.
Was lucky enough to see Eivor on Saturday supporting Heilung in London. An evening of shivers all over, definitely in my top 5 gigs and I've seen 100s of gigs over the last 40+ years.
You need to check out Heilung as well 🙂
Oh wow! Glad to hear you had an amazing time
@@ninaschofield it was awesome. Hey Nina, definitely consider reacting to Heilung, it's best described as amplified medieval music and most of the instruments date from Northern Europe of that time. I guarantee you'll have heard nothing like it before. "In Maidjan" or "Krigsgaldr" from the live "Lifa" concert, you'll love it .
@@circulation69 I hope she does. I love all three of their concerts that I have seen so far. The two songs you chose from Lifa are a great place to start
I concur - Krigsgaldr is a superb suggestion
Definitely another vote for Heilung. Anything from the Lifa concert would be a good start.
"I wonder as you sit here and watch this - what it's doing to you..?"
-Well, not entirely sure, but clearly something - as my eyes are filling with water. 👀
Introducing people to Eivor is one of my greatest pleasures.
and "wake me up" live is insanely good and crazy!
Lovely reaction! Eivor is magic, I was lucky to see her live in her home village on the Faeroe Islands last summer. Amazing hearing the crowd sing along in her mother tongue :) Many already suggested the magic performance of Falling Free live, is truly amazing. If you want something more playful, and really groovy I'd suggest Boxes, live at the Ravensburg jazz festival where she puts on a free spirit duet with Arve Henriksen: czcams.com/video/HkZV5hKQ0_k/video.html . Enjoy !
She has a fantastic, unique and heavenly voice and performance, I❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤it. Thank you so much, Nina, for your excellent work introducing all these extraordinary artists and their fabulous music. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ your show.
Oh nice! Eivør is one of my favorites. She’s got her traditional folk style music but iirc she’s got a jazz background as well. Plus she’s got a good bit of her own pop music as well. Her album Slør has an entire English version (Trøllabundin comes from this album). Segl is her most recent album that came out in 2020 and it’s my favorite. It’s got more of a produced pop sound and is one of my favorites from that year. Let It Come from Segl is great.
Falling Free is another great song from her much earlier album “Room” from 2012. It’s super impressive vocally.
Your reactions are very enjoyable.
Love Eivor .Her voice is so Amazing !!! A God-given talent . ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
She is incredible! I saw her on stage in France on december, she was opening the Heilung concert! (a band i strongly recommend you to discover!)
Great reaction as always.
Please try her Song "Falling Free" or "True Love" live .
Eivør Pálsdóttir is one of the 21st century's most underrated voices both for her musicality and her versatility . As everyone has probably said you must listen to " Falling Free " ( at least )
BTW another voice that falls in to the category of " who ? " but deserves so much more recognition is that of Anneke van Giersbergen a wonderful Dutch singer ( who incidentally was an inspiration to Floor Jansen when Floor was young ) . If you haven't listened to her then a good place to start might be this - Ayreon " Valley of the Queens " - czcams.com/video/TbebO5BZi-I/video.html - it's a very short piece but will give you a taster ( and if you haven't seen it - a surprise )
Lovely reaction! Now you must check out her performance of "Falling Free"
Very reminiscent of Native American music.
This song is pure magic. It is about a spell, that binds the soul. Just georgeous.
Thank you Nina. This outstanding reaction to such an outstanding performance makes it all double up. I`ve always admiered this performance since I first saw it some years ago. Even the TV-produsers of this was (naturally) inspired in their handeling of this musical event. As a norwegian, I was blown away by this, and even a feeling of pride that this even took place in my home country. 😊 This consert was set up with the very popular norwegian group called "Wamp".
I actually just was made aware that Eivør is about to launch a few conserts with "Wardruna" in Denmark, under the label "Viking". I would so love to go to, but sadly not able to do so. Hoping for some more great YT videos to show up from THAT event as well. Even Aurora has been co-working with "Wardruna". This Norwegian group are known for their work in trad. nordic music, that even might transcend traditions as they go way back to what music might have been like among the vikings.
Aurora and Wardruna performing "Helvegen" czcams.com/video/FnkTuHP9q3o/video.html
There is another version in a dramatic setting:- czcams.com/video/cg0TQyjdHJ0/video.html
I loved this performance. It somehow brought me to Michael Jackson’s “will you be there”. I think you should do a video covering its vocals and background. It deserves your assessment.
That's a soul singing right there.
This is such a mesmerizing performance, and the setting is not too shabby either. 🙂
I'm guessing that like me a lot of people who have seen this performance before are waiting for the reaction to "that" moment. 😁
I hope I did it justice, thanks for watching!
@@ninaschofield Oh a great reaction for sure. It's always fun to see how people react to the introduction of the throat singing and you did not disappoint. 😁
it is an Excellent question: What she's doing to me? watching you and and listening her, makes me almost levitate, her Voice and your smile, Nina, are a fatal combination.
Sometimes I think with our busy lives we forget where we come from. Music like this brings us back
This was my introduction and remains my favorite in part because of the setting and me imagining the sound throughout the valley.
I love tribal music. Her voice is amazing... no where to hide without the band/instruments.
another eivor reaction is long overdue since we are now in september!
If you enjoyed this and the earthy, primal feel to the music, I thoroughly recommend 'Helvegen' performed live by Wardruna & AURORA. Traditional Norse folk at its finest!! Both of their voices compliment each others so well, and the music definitely takes you on a journey
I think what makes this entire masterpiece so special is that it reaches out to an ancient part of our soul. Something that we as human beings remember. Despite the fact that it was way before our time. At the dawn of mankind. Something in us remembers. We may not be able to put it in words but we sure can feel it. This touches something in us. Something that was passed on to us. From our ancestors.
Love this song I'm Australian and here after your video of John doing help ❤️🇦🇺👍
One of my favorites of her is her performance of Heyr himna smidúr .. the oldest hymn in Icelandic and I believe the oldest hymn in the Nordic countries. czcams.com/video/EXUbSmbs_lg/video.html
Awesome reaction to this live version. I suggested you reacted to her live performance of salt on the juke train
If you like Eivor check out Susanne Sundfor. She's super interesting and does amazing stuff with her voice.
Wow.. Falling Free by Eivor live at Old Theater next please 🤟🤟🔥🔥🔥
Eivor's from the Faroe Islands, which are ruled by Denmark, but have a unique culture and language...she sings in Faroese here......Trollabundin is about having a wizard of nature cast a spell on the singer ("Trollbound" or "spellbound").......
They are not ruled by Denmark, they have autonomy and are part of Denmark, if they want to leave Denmark they can do so if there is a majority for it, until then they are still part of Denmark.
@@bernadetterubin4892 thanks for the clarification......
@04:01, "great breath control". Everyone else who has heard the song already, "you ain't seen nothing yet!" 🤣🤣🤣
Music aside just wanted to let you know you are beautiful as a person inside and out . I feel like too many people feel weird saying this, but i wish i heard it every now and then ... You truly are though .
I heard about Eivør, but never sat down to listen to now. I noticed she is from Faroes Islands. The only artists I know from there is Týr and a member of Týr, Heri Joensen who put together an international band project called Surma. Eivør is brilliant, how she presents music to just her voice and a drum. What grabs me is the musical atmosphere and feeling she presents. I want to say, thank you Nina, I will definitely will want to listen to more of Eivør. There are only two singers I know, who is like her which is impressive is Aurora (which you have covered) and Fabienne Erni of Swiss Folk Metal band Eluveitie. Similar track would be Eluveitie - Artio, which is very much voice driven like Eivør.
Check out the band Heilung and their song Anoana.
@@jeffmalloy8200 Heilung have group members from Germany, Denmark, and Norway. I don’t see how they are relevant to the comment you are commenting on as they are not from the Faroe Islands.
@@MrMakhitta he mentioned Aurora who is from Norway, and also a Swiss folk metal band. I assumed he was looking for leads to more great bands and singers from that part of the world. Lighten up.
Try out Eivørs Falling free live from Thorshavn.☺️
Eivor’s videos are almost always a work of art unto themselves, she has some great people around her methinks, as she deserves with such a great talent.
Great to see it appreciated knowledgeably :-)
“Falling Free” live in Torshavn and her cover of Kate Bush’s “Hounds Of Love” are favourites.
Trivia : she does the vocals for the BBC/Netflix series “The Last Kingdom”.
😊👍
when is a door not a door?? when it's ajar...got to be one of the best vocal performances..wow..
My fave version of Eivor singing this is by Copenhagen Records. She sings this differently on her official vid too, however the version on the Copenhagen Records CZcams, IMO is the best. In that performance she primarily Yoiks through a short version of Trollunbundin. Its absolutely mind blowing. Vocal range is off the planet. It's raw, wild and beautiful, evoking deep ancestral connections.
Ok, good start! Any live performance of "Falling Free" or "True Love" (or any other song from her).
...........👆👆👆 Now..........🎁🎸🎸
7:40 this part seems the intro of Labyrinth by the italian star Elisa
its been six days, in my time to see you tube ai, bring this to my notice. i thank u tube for catching my attention. your review was spot on. thank you rick seattle u.s.a.
...........👆👆👆 Now..........🎁🎸🎸
What I think you missed--or at least, didn't comment on--is that in those "rhythmic" sections, she was frequently vocalizing on the inhale....
BTW, just found your channel (first with Jinjer/Pisces), watched several now. Subscribed.
Nina, thank you for your reaction to Eivor performing 'Trollabundin'. Please listen and react to 'Falling Free' (live in Torshavn). 🥰
...........👆👆👆 Now..........🎁🎸🎸
She's utterly marvellous. It looks to me that part of the audience was pulled from whatever the Norwegian equivalent of the National Trust gift shop is: "Hold on a moment Morten, I just need to find some ethnic socks to go with my new cagoule.". They should all look aghast and be totally into it.
very interesting acapela with drum in a country setting this girl has the vocals i wonder if shes turkish or russian artist .
If you'd like to see a young Eivor, at the age of 18, when she was the lead singer of Faeroese post-punk band Clickhaze - czcams.com/video/IQqYiRNv7Ws/video.html
On the other hand, to bring us up to date, she just released The Last Kingdom: Main Theme (Live at Hammersmith Apollo) - czcams.com/video/WT65X0eBTEA/video.html
I’m almost sure that you know what a joik is and this is very much akin to it
The audience is there to see and hear Vamp that is a folk rockish band 🤣🇧🇻
Daymn you are quite smart
That´s no beatboxing ! She learned Faroese throat singing from her grandmother. For me, her voice is a force of nature, calming and energizing at the same time.
Title "Tròdlabùndin" can be translated to "Spellbound"
In Norwegian wizard is "trollmann" (troll man, a man who trolls)
This "heavy breathing" way of singing is typical for shamanic rituals in the arctic circle. It is very much related to Sámi yoik, for example.
if not, how about a reaction to Kalandra, 'Brave New World' to start with maybe (kulturkirche Jakob sounds a better rendition)
good song and performance!
if you want really to be speechless , czcams.com/video/KNPIdGBn7M4/video.html, an amazing performance from eivor
Eivor .Paul's daughter. I am Paul Robertsson. My son is Ryan Paul's son my other son is Scott Paul's son
Let no one speak or write about Columbus and his discovery of America...
Listen to the music of Native Americans and Vikings and you will understand what I am talking about.
Regards.
Too interruptive :(
Nina i adore you💖
