Mediterranean Folk

Mediterranean folk is a diverse and vibrant genre rooted in the traditional music of the Mediterranean region, blending influences from Southern Europe, North Africa, and the Near East. Characterized by rich vocal traditions, intricate stringed instrumentation (such as the oud, bouzouki, and guitar), and rhythmic complexity, it often features poetic storytelling and themes of love, migration, and nature. The genre ranges from energetic, danceable tunes to melancholic ballads, incorporating modal scales and regional dialects. Mediterranean folk embodies the cultural crossroads of its geography, preserving ancient melodies while embracing modern influences.
