European Folk

European folk music is a diverse and richly traditional genre that encompasses the regional sounds and cultural heritage of various countries across the continent. It includes Nordic fiddle music, Romani and Balkan rhythms, Iberian fado and folk storytelling, and choral and vocal traditions from Central and Eastern Europe. The instrumentation often features fiddles, accordions, mandolins, and traditional percussion, while lyrical themes range from love and nature to historical events and daily life. Whether through soulful, melancholic ballads or lively dance melodies, European folk music preserves the essence of each region’s history and identity.
