Welcome to my channel! My goal is to showcase musical traditions from all over the globe, regardless of culture, ethnicity and religion. I want this channel to be like a musical world museum, a library of musical traditions from all over the world and all over time. I make three general types of content here: arrangements of historical/world music that respects each culture and time period’s authenticity, original compositions that are more creative but still utilise aspects of world music, and informative videos where I explore certain subjects using academic research and sources.

best video i've watched all year, i absolutely loved it and could not stop watching :) the actual middle eastern music was so beautiful and captivating and i will so be listening to more! i always loved composing without using traditional scales so this is so up my alley
New orientalist drinking game, take a shot every time you hear a duduk

People in South America experience the same with all those musical stereotypes. I'm brazilian and the concept of "brazilian music" outside the country is absurd enough - it's not all about samba and bossa nova, and even within these genre there are so many variations.
1:15:25 Whoa there with the French.
William Wallace European Scottish Epic Music goes hard ngl. That beat drop! 😂
Your singing is beautiful in any language
I was waiting for you to play an ABBA song with Norse instruments - taking modern Scandinavian music, but breaking it down to the basics of what Medieval Norse music would've sounded like lol!
Amazingly informative and helpful, even as a fellow middle easterner.
Greetings from Orthodox Georgia 🇬🇪 Jesus is King of kings and Lord of the lords! GOD BLESS YOU ALL!❤
Jan-nesari - from Persian, the one who sacrifices his life.

You should look at doing something with the child ballads
As an American who grew up in Morocco and Bahrain, I really enjoyed the William Wallace Scottish Music. Though I think it wasn’t cold enough, because Scotland is cold, and the salsa beat (or whatever you would call it) just “sounds warm.” But still good music, I’d totally listen to that just I wouldn’t believe it to be Scottish, more Portuguese or maybe Greek. I feel like this is something that’s also done within the West, though just not as much. So consider the band Eluveitie - one of my favorites - from Switzerland that claim to play Gaul-themed music, and even write some of their lyrics in a reconstructed Gallic language. But their music sounds more like blue grass, possibly because they thought “Gauls = Celts = Irish = Blue Grass.” Which however ridiculous still sounds good. Regarding Orientalism more generally, I really think that is actually a fantasy world they have created for themselves akin to “medieval fantasy” which doesn’t have much at all in common with actual medieval Europe. Like when I went to college (undergraduate university) in the US, people actually asked me if I rode to school on a camel. And when I said no, some asked if it was a donkey instead. If they thought for even a split second they’d know that was preposterous to even ask, but they already had this fantasy world built up in their heads.
Just left this comment on your Iranian music video but I'm Irish and I think it's way cooler that so many cultures have their own bag pipes than that they're uniquely ours. I always love learning about the different types and traditions
Love a bag pipe. Everyone seems to have their own type of bag pipe and they're all really cool
I’ve never liked those western parodies on eastern music. And duduk is freaking me out, it sounds inappropriate. I’ve been some countries and had a chance to hear local music-it’s different from what many are used to think it is. It’s harmonic and accomplished. Though, not every time those vibes may resonate with you.
orientalist music is boring ACTUALLY, I WANT THE REAL THING INSTEAD. I'M GOOD I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF IT! IT'S EVEN GETTING ON MY NERVES NOW
I am practicing horse archery right now. This song motivates me so much man.
Greatest beard I’ve ever seen. If god is real then he definitely has that beard.
this is sooo beautiful, I'm in awe
Love from the lands that were once Byzantine Empire. Love from 🇹🇷🤝 🇬🇷
Maybe I am just deaf, but it seems to me that the lines "Zülfikârr salladi divin basina, Kesdi atdi sarâyinin tasina," are not actually sung by you in this symphony nor in The Seljuks. Why is this? Those are such badass lyrics and it's a shame to see them omitted.
As an Egyptian we underrate both empires lol
Painting Marylin Monroe in a rennaisance style is more historically accurate than painting the Mona Lisa in Cubist style
Latin = based
Κωνσταντινούπολη ❤
So much of the orientalist music using digital (or otherwise non-complexly played) "Middle Eastern instruments" sounds like western corporate music using guitars. Listen to any competent guitar player, it's complex and so much heart is put into it. It's not just "guitar notes," it's PLAYED. It's a relationship with the guitar. Then you hear corporate happy music with a guitar and it sounds so... flat.
Why don’t western movie studios just find good musical composers from the eastern nations they are making a movie about and hire them to compose authentic music to reflect the time period and the people?
This is the most thought provoking video I have watched in a long time. Thank you!
This is amazing

The apology by FaolanMusic is so crazy to me, like... "We called it Princess of Persia because our song, that we freely admit was not influenced by traditional Persian music, reminded us of Persia, a place we likely have never been." And then to just say "driven by our thoughts," as though the rhythms and melodies they produce aren't - at least in some part - derived from popular culture.
