Collection: European
European music is a rich and diverse tapestry of traditional sounds, spanning from the lively polka and accordion-driven folk melodies to the melancholic Portuguese fado and the rhythmic Balkan kolo. This genre encompasses a wide range of regional styles, including the festive carnival music of Limburg and Cadiz, the haunting sevdah of the Balkans, and the intricate bouzouki and guitarra portuguesa of Mediterranean traditions. From the alpine folk sounds of Alpenpanorama to the maritime chants of the Basque region, European music reflects the continent's complex cultural heritage, featuring everything from children's choral works (Kinderchor, Chinderlieder) to traditional volksmusik and ethnographic folk expressions that capture the soul of different regional identities through instruments like the cimbalom and distinctive vocal styles rooted in centuries-old musical traditions.
