Vilma & Sami - 2018-2019 Highlights
Channel: Vilma and Sami Duo
Date: 24/01/2020

A little digest of our videos and live performances over the period 2018-2019.

We are a travelling, world folk music duo. The songs we learned were shared by local musicians we met while travelling, or at "Ethno" global music gatherings (www.ethno-world.org) and similar events. 

By publishing videos in which we perform folk and traditional music, we want to encourage people to listen to and learn music, languages and cultures around the globe. We want to "bring the world to your living room". 

In our videos we propose a version -our version- of some traditional and folk songs. We learned them from local people, but we do not pretend to represent these cultures. 

Naturally, we strongly encourage our audience to listen to the original or local musicians' versions of these songs, to get a more authentic vision and experience. And whenever we can, we will point links to such versions.
