Why does Ravenswood makes us learn all of these Balkan songs ?

Hi Friends !

Welcome to our new web log and World Music Discussion website.
Now we will be able to share and brainstorm anytime ! Please visit this site regularly to add your input, share your stories, and bring songs for singing ! Don't forget to link us to your song ideas, your favourite music and other good research !

So, are ya tired of singing in Croatian ? Are ya longing for a nice Appalachian tune ? Why do I keep introducing you to all of these Bulgarian songs, anyway ?

So that's our first topic ... what's with all of this " World Music "? What the dickens is World Music, anyhow

Please address these few topics in a sensitive, well crafted opinion/rant/comment.

Have fun, be creative, tell your truth, be bold !!

I look so forward to hearing from all of you ...

All the best,

Linda Ravenswood
