ANCIENT HUN MUSIC by KARAKURT


I always wonder about videos that come under the Ancient Magyar theme as I believe most of the music is a revisioning, a romanticism of the past.  I like the sounds of this one though, and maybe YOU know more about the origins of this song?

Leave me a comment if you do?

ISRAEL : I TOO AM HORRIFIED AT THE ATTACKS ON CIVILIANS

A few days ago a planned invasion of Israel, focused on Jewish civilians began - though citizens of other religions and ethnicity have and will be injured or die. I've listened to hundreds of YouTube video reports.  These range from standard news carriers such as Reuters, PBS, BBC, CNN, ABC, and NBC - to stations in Australia and France.  I've listened to "Christian" stations that suspect that what is happening is Biblical prophecy and that this is part of progression to the End Times. Protests by college students who favor the terrorists. Numerous paper - Internet journalistic reports, have also reported on the devastation and the murder of civilians including children and babies, as well as the capture of hostages and the rape of women. 

And meanwhile the war on Ukraine by Russian continues.

We have economic problems in the United States, we had 9/11, we have terrorist attacks but the mass murderers seem to be mostly the work of mentally ill persons who have access to weaponry including children. The United States has superior intelligence and when we go to sleep at night, assuming we will wake in the morning to the status quo, we do so forgetting that our military is watching over us.

Why is peace so difficult to achieve?

So much evil!

HUNGARIAN FOLK MUSIC ANTHOLOGY SERIES


ANTHOLOGY OF HUNGARIAN FOLK MUSIC I. / MAGYAR NEPZENEI ANTOLOGIA I - TANCZENE ( 3. LP/A)


Loved this album.  You can hear the real, untrained voices of the Hungarian men, women, and the children.  I love listening to Hungarian music while I work on this blog or do my personal Hungarian - American / Amerikai Magyarok genealogy research.

YouTube poster Karmol Torma has the whole series on her channel.
