Introducing yet another new series! This time we take hands on quick glimpses at ethnic music from various cultures.
"Discovering Ethnic Music of the World"
The influence of various kinds of music is an essential element to being a musician. The wider your range the more you have to work with and bounce your creative energy off of. A great way to extend one’s musical horizons is by not only listening to, but studying, music of the world. While doing so your own music will no doubt pick up ideas that you would have never thought of before. Just as it’s important to eat foods from different cultures, the same can be said about understanding music as well.
Get ready to have your perception of music split open and readjusted!
In this video we will look at the traditional music of Tokushima, Japan - Awa Odori.
I recently returned from an extended trip around Asia. During my time I sought out and participated in as much music as I could - documenting it along the way. This is something I have been doing for years. So I created this new series. These videos are in no way complete examinations of the music. Simply quick glimpses and some discussion, almost in VLOG style.
If anything piques your interest please do some further investigation on your on. Of course feel free to ask any questions in the comment section.
I decided to split the videos of this series up and release them periodically with my other videos.
