VETRARJAZZ 2026 – Addeq (GL/FO)

FO

Fólkatónleikarar úr Føroyum, har ímillum Kristian Blak, luttóku í 1987 í vígsluni av norðurlendska
stovninum NAPA. Føroyingarnar framførdu í Eysturgrønlandi, og fingu gott samband við
trummudansarin Anda Kuitse, úr bygdini Kulusuk.
Seinni fór Kristian aftur til Eysturgrønlands og framførdi tónleik við íblástri úr lívinum og
umhvørvinum hjá Anda. Árið eftir innspældu Anda og Kristian hendan tónleikin í Føroyum, saman
við sámiskum, afrikanskum og svenskum tónleikarum. Heitið á plátuni varð "Addeq" – grønlendska
navnið á fuglinum, sum á føroyskum eitur ógvella.
Nú í 2026 framføra vit Addeq við Miké Thomsen. Anda Kuitse lærdi hann sjálvur upp í
eysturgrønlendskum trummudansi. Miké hevur spælt við Yggdrasil, Resterne af Rigsfællesskabet
og fleiri bólkum her í Føroyum.
Miké, sum er uppvaksin í Ilulissat, er bæði sjónleikari, dansari, umframt tónleikari og fer, til hetta
høvið, at framføra tónleik úr Addeq afturat øðrum tónleiki hjá upprunafólki, saman við Kristiani,
Angeliku, Heðini og Mikael.

In 1987, folk musicians from the Faroe Islands, including Kristian Blak, participated in the
inauguration of the Nordic organization NAPA. The Faroese musicians performed in East
Greenland, and got a good relationship with the traditional drummer Anda Kuitse, from the village
of Kulusuk.

Later, Kristian returned to East Greenland and performed music inspired by Anda's life and
environment. The following year, Anda and Kristian recorded this concert in the Faroe Islands,
together with Sámi, African and Swedish musicians. The title of the album was "Addeq" – the
Greenlandic name of the bird, which in English is called long-tailed duck.

Now in 2026 we perform Addeq with Miké Thomsen. Anda Kuitse was his teacher in East
Greenlandic drum dancing. Miké has played with Yggdrasil, Resterne af Rigsfællesskabet and
several bands here in Faroe Islands.

Miké, who grew up in Ilulissat, is both an actor, dancer, as well as a musician and will, for this
occasion, perform music from Addeq in addition to other music by indigenous people, together with
Kristian, Angelika, Heðin and Mikael.
