Favourites... I've been into Celtic music since I remember, adding to that time some periods of "brake" from this culture. But my love to that tradition is still valid. Moreover, thanks to some auditions in radio, the interest to other musical places in the world was aroused. So in fact, everything considering the term
world music pays my deep attention.
Styles - I love to listen both traditional and modern versions of that music. Such artists like Xera, Afro Celt Sound System, Martyn Bennett etc. are as important for me as Bonga, Capercaillie and so on. I believe that
world music doesn't know the term "boundaries" in both geographical (horizontal) and aestethical (vertical) way. I'm not a conservative at that point.
Bands - see above.
