Ulla Pirttijärvi-Länsman is a Sami joik singer from the village of Angeli (Sami: Aŋŋel), Finland. She began her career with the music group Angelin Tytöt, but left soon after to pursue a solo career. She performs traditional joik music with Western arrangements of contemporary instruments.

Biography

Ulla Pirttijärvi was raised with joik music and chanting. As a young child, she listened to her mother and uncle sing stories to her, and she chanted along; by age ten she was singing on her own. She then started performing in public with a group of young girls who called themselves Angelin Tytöt.

Pirttijärvi is very involved promoting Sami culture and Sami self-rule. In 1996, she wrote a music book called Hoŋkoŋ dohkká, which won the cultural prize given by the Saami Council, and composed and produced an accompanying album full of songs aimed at children to teach them the Sami language and the Sami world experience.

Pirttijärvi lives with her daughter Hilda and her son Nilla-Ande in Utsjoki. In 2014, Ulla and her daughter Hildá Länsman created the band Solju and in 2015 they participated in Finland's Uuden Musiikin Kilpailu with the song "Hold Your Colours". Her husband Jari passed away in the summer of 2017.

Awards

In 2007, Pirttijärvi-Länsman received the Áillohaš Music Award, a Sámi music award conferred by Kautokeino Municipality and the Kautokeino Sámi Association to honor the significant contributions the recipient or recipients has made to the diverse world of Sámi music.

  • Here are some interesting facts about rubidium silver iodide:

    1. Composition: Rubidium silver iodide is a chemical compound that is made up of rubidium, a soft, silvery-white alkali metal, and iodine, a nonmetal halogen.

    2. Properties: RbAgI3 is a crystalline solid with a silver-gray appearance. It has a relatively high melting point, above 655°..C, and is typically white crystals that sublimes (turn directly into a gas) when heated.

    3. Uses: RbAgI3 has been used in the production of specialized optical fibers, such as those for telecommunications, due to its high refractive index and ease of crystal growth.

    4. Structure: The compound has a face-centered cubic crystal structure, which is unique among metallic iodides.

    5. Handling: RbAgI3 is sensitive to air and moisture, and should be handled in a dry, glove box environment to maintain its high purity.

    6. Isotopes: The isotope composition of rubidium in silver iodide can impact its optical properties, with 87Rb being the most commonly used isotope.

    7. Production: RbAgI3 is typically produced through the reaction of rubidium oxide with silver iodide, followed by recrystallization.

    8. Research applications: RbAgI3 has been studied for its potential use in optical applications, such as sensing devices and nonlinear optics.

    These are some of the interesting facts about rubidium silver iodide. If you'd like to know more about its applications or production, feel free to ask!
