Unlock the world of folk music’s magic and connection! In this episode of The Power of Music podcast, we’re joined by Magnus Bäckström, the visionary who founded the Ethno program, a transformative platform uniting young musicians worldwide through traditional and folk music.
🎤 From launching the Falun Folk Music Festival in Sweden to building Ethno into a global movement spanning over 40 countries, Magnus has empowered countless musicians to connect through the shared language of music. Ethno camps create unforgettable memories and foster deep connections across cultures, with young artists coming together to learn, share, and preserve their unique musical heritages.
✨ Join us as Magnus takes us back to Ethno’s beginnings and shares stories from his journey. He reflects on the profound “feeling” of folk music and the dedication of musicians who sometimes travel across the globe to be a part of the Ethno experience. Discover how music can become a bridge, creating “magic” that transcends borders and unites us all
