World music is a perfect vehicle of communication between two cultures The differences and the similarities between the two musical heritages create an ideal mix for the cross-cultural communication. The similarities between Hungarian and Norwegian musical traditions include three fundamental elements:
- the powerful fiddle/string band traditions of both countries
- the important role historical minorities play: the Sami in Norway and the Roma in Hungary
- the fluid boundaries of the village heritage and the contemporary urban world music scenes both in Hungary and Norway.
Cross-cultural bridges between the two countries open ways to more cultural exchange, development, identities, tourism and economy. Our program has been built on three elements:
1, Invitation of artists from Norway, which have been the first encounter with Norwegian artists. As a side event of the festival, a workshop of Norwegian and Hungarian professionals has been held.
2, Study tour for Hungarian professionals in Norway on the occasion of our partner’s main event, the Oslo World Music festival. This has include dprofessional meetings with festival organizers, publishers, the Norway music export agency, and media representatives.
3, Workshop of Sami and Roma musicians. At the core of project is the exchange between Sami and Roma artists. They share a lot of issues – communities without a stateship, former nomadic lifestyles that have been forced to settle down, musical heritage as a main vehicle of maintaining the identity, distinct language, cross-border groups. Collaboration between Roma and Sami musicians has been encouraged.
