Traditional Music - The Thread

I don't know if this will interest anyone else in here, but i quite like to discover traditional music from around the world.So here is a thread for it.

Post traditional/classical/ancient music related links.

I'll start with a few nice ones i found on youtube.

Love Zakir Hussain.

We've got a "World Music" thread going on here this stuff would fit nicely into:

Ah so there is one for World Music! i thought i saw it pass by, i couldn't find it with search! thanks

If no one minds i would still keep mine to have one to be focused on ancient/traditional/classical traditions tho.I think it could be nice to have one focus on that.

I'm down with that. It'd be nice to have one for contemporary and one for traditional. "World Music" is a pretty redundant  term.

That Albanian choral stuff is lush too.

The harmonies in this Bulgarian choral music... Jaw dropping

it makes me so happy that even if humanity lost literally everything and became cave dwellers the music could be maintained

Beautiful. Timeless. LOVE those kind of vocal ornementations. It also has some renaissance madrigal vibes near the end. Very impressive!

This specific video, the performance and the recording quality together make it heavy as fuck.

Maybe this topic title should be changed to Regional or Indigenous Music? Ethnic Music? I dunno?

Why? Traditional music seems fitting. It encompasses all those things and more.  There is traditional music in nearly every country and culture. To call it ''Ethnic'' thread makes no sense. And regional will soon become filled with modern pop equivalent (like the world thread)

No, traditional is fine.

This whole album is loaded with bangerz

I love when you can hear the environment vibe in the music. Where it was born.

Had no idea the harp was used around those places! The first one ''Predestinacion'' is amazing.
